I hope everyone who voted for ‘change’ will enjoy the change to US style healthcare.

Health NZ urges Govt to consider privately-run public hospitals

In addition to the new Dunedin Hospital, more than a dozen other large projects are classified as having significant risks.

Health NZ recommending PPP, which would cost more over time than just building the fucking thing. And as for this final comment from the GP, it's not ironic it's a deliberate strategy. Irony would be if it was coincidental. www.1news.co.nz/2024/10/01/h...

Don't do it New Zealand! Keep them public! Private-run just means they're skimming off money that should go to patient care for profits instead!

My thoughts exactly. This would be a huge change for NZ and would need a referendum, at least, if not another election. And Chris Hipkins has to go off the chain about this.

So we must!

1News: Government showing its hand on health. Report says Health NZ recommended to the government that health should be privatised ie funded and run by private corporations. This deserves a NATIONWIDE protest doesn't it? They're not even a year in .. this is really bad. #nzpol#Kiwi

If it's privatised, I'm done paying tax. End of. Get fucked. I don't have kids. We're paying road user charges and road tolls eventually I pay council rates and GST. Income tax? Get all the way fucked. The only thing it'll be going toward is a criminal govt's cronies.

#NZpol Notable: Reti promoting Privatisation for health. More Notable: 1News not putting enough context in their own reporting on his "reasons" ("they're widely used overseas" 🙄 & "cost blowout!", ie. inflating certain figures to make it appear it *has* to happen) , leaving this to others. Again.

They never mention the PREFU.

ACT NAT NZF are trying to trash all the goodness, the learning i reckon Chuck, via his GG, shouldn't be happy about this abortive coup we're experiencing #nzpol
