West Sussex GPs offer extra weekend appointments
A big well done to these surgeries providing a decent service to the public
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-30760172
A good example that should be followed by the money grabbers getting fat on the Labour 2004 not in the public interest contracts

Of course in Joeland no NHS money ever went to the private sector under Labour. In fact 4% of NHS spending went to the private sector under Labour, 5% now wit Conservatives - usual Labour hypocrisy
Can you expand Joe on what the connection is between the CCG placing a tranche of work with the private sector and a number of GP Surgeries provinging an improved service

You believe crap percentages like my wife Joe when she see's a 70% off sign at spivs like Sports Direct and I tell her they were previously selling the stuff for £500
So 70% is not kosher but merely a claim from a "campaign group" & in your second link which possibly has more substance "a Freedom of Information request made by the British Medical Journal" the figure plummets to 33%

not figures from some pressure group, but from the gov itself
he information comes from a Freedom of Information request made by the British Medical Journal.
Of 3,494 contracts awarded by 182 Clinical Commissioning Groups in England between April 2013 and August 2014, 33% went to the private sector.
The government says the data is misleading.

Link one as I said was from a pressure group and again as I said link 2 possibly has more substance. Try reading my post in full

i did read it dedworth, the 70% figure could still be true as it's from a smaller sample

so the ccg has created an extra 360 appointments at GP surgeries, but at the same time caused problems for the 2 local A&E units
Accident and emergency services used by South Downs residents are potentially under threat in the wake of a decision to hand an NHS contract to a private provider.
Health chiefs this week said the decision could threaten the future viability of A&E services at Chichester and Worthing hospitals.

Two words for you to look up Joe, potentially and could
Do you need a link to a dictionary

funny they didn't get a contract for A & E, i wonder why
oh private companies are not interested in A & E when they can cherry pick which ones will make them most money. now with the hospital losing the contract they will have less money to send on other departments, like the loss making A & E
