Yeah, I think our NHS / BUPA system is good. I'm not gonna say it doesn't make me uncomfortable to think that poorer people often get a shittier service, BUT before I get jumped on, that's not the fault of BUPA. That just means that the NHS needs to improve its regulation, infrastructure, monitoring, organisation, etc, to make its standards better. And as you pointed out, people who can afford to switch to BUPA are actually facilitating that by relieving pressure on the NHS. So yeah, I think it's good.
