NHS patients told to treat themselves

Millions of people with arthritis, asthma and even heart failure will be urged to treat themselves as part of a Government plan to save billions of pounds from the NHS budget.

This is on top of Gordon's Brown's legislation to clamp down on fat people, smokers and drinkers. How can a Doctor say no when he or she took the oath to treat all? If I faced this situation I would demand they were struck off and take it to the courts as well. What this comes down to is saving as much money as they can and slow down the downfall of the NHS, to sum up private hospitals via the back door.

This stupid government bangs on about all the money they have given to the NHS don't they know a lot of money is wasted in Admin and red tape?
