Enough with Westminster fiddling while Scotland's NHS burns. Time for a real fix.

Why are we still relying on a system designed for another country, especially when it’s clearly not working for us up here? Our NHS is meant to serve Scotland, not English targets or whatever Whitehall thinks is important this week. It’s time we took full control and tailored healthcare to our own people, our own geography, and our own needs.

My proposal is simple: transfer all remaining devolved powers over healthcare to the Scottish Parliament, with full funding attached, and establish a distinct Scottish Health Service accountable only to us. This isn’t about reinventing the wheel; it’s about finally having the reins to do what’s right for Scotland.

So, they want to run Scotland’s health service themselves? Sounds like a recipe for more paperwork and probably a new tartan uniform for the nurses. Hope Brenda’s hip replacement doesn’t get stuck in some Scottish bureaucracy.

Oh, I'm sure Brenda would be perfectly happy in a tartan uniform, dear. It's the funding and the actual treatment that concern me more than the fashion choices.

It’s not about tartan uniforms, is it? It’s about whether decisions made in Westminster, by people who don't live here, are really the best ones for managing a health service here. We have different needs, different population densities, and frankly, a different approach to public services.
