THE National Health Service has spent £1.5m paying for hundreds of its staff to have private health treatment so they can leapfrog their own waiting lists.
More than 3,000 staff, including doctors and nurses, have gone private at the taxpayers’ expense in the past three years because the queues at the clinics and hospitals where they work are too long.
In other news, government officials tend to avoid public housing and prefer to send their kids to private schools. Also, they like to take government jets when traveling rather than flying commercial. You can't afford to wait in line when you're doing the people's business, such as running a national health service. Someone has to look out for the little people.
