when we have something like a flu epidemic or norovirus, the whole system can grind to a halt. couplerising from that, the first is on the funding. it is politically very, very difficult in this country to talk to the population as a whole and to say that there might be changes in the way the nhs is funded. thinking about this in the office, before this interview, we used to get free prescriptions. we don't any more. we used to get free dental checks, we don't any more. we used to get free eye tests, we don't any more. i wonder whether there is a model that you might have in your head that might be pushed, were actually there is some change in the way we access the gp system or the hospital system, a&es? the more you introduce things like top ups and charging, the more you widen health inequality. my personal view is that those fundamental founding principles of the nhs, surrounding a universal service that is free at the point of need, based on your need and not your ability to pay, i think that is where we should stick with, that is what we should stick with. that is the most treasu

we know we have norovirus close 1000 beds. on the nhs. but also pressure on the nhs. but also pressure on the nhs. but also pressure on staff. briefly, in terms of efficiencies and management of staff, has that been stretched to its absolute limit? is there any more room for efficiency in the system as far as you're concerned? it is interesting. you can have efficiency when you don't have the right number of staff to deliver a service, so i think efficiencies have been pushed to their limits because we've seen a have been pushed to their limits because we've seen a number of cuts in the nhs. most importantly, what we are talking about is people's lights and care that people require. even to do that, you have to have enough people on the ground to administer treatment of care. thank you. a woman has appeared in court charged with murder after police found a body buried in a garden in greater manchester. 63—year—old barbara coombes is also charged with preventing the lawful and decent burial of a body and with fraud. human remai

the same goes for the spirit illness and also norovirus. it seems like a difficult winter.ut those changes in police. ideally it would have started sooner. that transformation process would have started sooner. and read about social care has been increases, and the desired outcome of keeping people well at home has not been achieved. we will carry on having problems like this until we have the ca re system problems like this until we have the care system that can achieve that. this decision to postpone non urgent, routine operations, things like hip replacements, knee surgery. . . like hip replacements, knee surgery... but if you are scheduled to have that and it is postponed, the prime minister said it is frustrating. putting it mildly. more pain, more discomfort for the people waiting. it also increases the risk of poorer outcomes. it is true that life—saving operations are not affected by this. but for those affected by this. but for those affected by this. but for those affected by this, consequences are serious. thank you very much. van figures from the hill seventh in

pressures now, those pressures extend year round and in the winter when we have a flu epidemic and norovirusve to start doing that now. one quick before we let you go. on the sort of figure side of it and the obsession, you know, judging on where things are with regards to the a&e waiting times, it looks as though, i mean, according to bbc research, university hospitals in coventry and warwickshire they are including it walk—in centre times in their a&e waiting time analysis which improved things by about 5%, but that's being run by virgin care services which is nothing to do with the trust. this is manipulation of the figures, isn't it? i think what we need to do isn't it? i think what we need to do is be clear what we are talking about, type one accident departments, and separate the data out from them, but there is a complication here because some accident departments, accident and emergency departments it would make things better for those who are waiting for example some types of specialist cases being able to go to the ward to be assessed and that maybe a good thing and show a good way
