More Labour success
This chart shows the national surgical waiting list since 2017. National actually set targets for elective surgery and the result was not just record numbers of elective operations, but a national waiting list of just 1,421 at the end of 2017. It is now around 2000% higher.
And no it isn’t just Covid-19. By the end of 2019 it had already gone up 360%.
Once again this shows that Labour is entirely focused on inputs such as spending, and is failing totally at improving actual outcomes. We now have 20 times as many people waiting for a needed operation.
