English NHS is a lot larger than the Scots equivalent and would not be financially viable or affordable.
As it is, the NHS is a monstrous institution - one of the largest employers in the world, that gives the appearance of an iceberg - one third above the water line being the nurses and doctors, two thirds below the water line comprised of management, hangers on, and various wasters on who suck any money dry without contributing a thing to the organisation.
Perhaps if they drained the swamp of the bureaucrats, then maybe the front-line staff could be rewarded better for their efforts.
