My colleague has a brain tumour and has been given a neurologist appointment in 18 months (UK of course)

18 months, goodness me. What a mess.

US healthcare is flawed but at least if you pay for healthcare you get it. UK healthcare is just beyond trash. You pay a shitload for it in taxes and it basically doesn't exist. Most people with minor illness, but that still need treatment, just ignore them. Dealing with getting a GP (primary health care) appointment is such a pain in the arse and they make you feel like a scammer/ungrateful prick for even daring to try and get an appointment. GP receptionists act like nightclub bouncers.

Feel bad for my colleague. She was in tears. She's hot too
