1 Margaret Thatcher's attempt to introduce privatisation of the NHS by introducing layers of middle management in an 'internal market'. This employs thousands of 'administrators' on gigantic salaries.
2 Political correctness in the form of thousands of DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity) cadres, again on gigantic salaries.
3 Increased longevity - given to us by the NHS - meaning that illnesses of old age, which are expensive to treat, proliferate.
4 Advances in science and medicine mean that conditions and diseases which used to be fatal are now - expensively - treatable.
6 Up to and including the 1970s, hospital doctors were slaves, expected ti work/be on call for days and nights on end without a break.
7 We now employ too many foreigners in the NHS, some of whom are not well enough qualified medically, or do not speak English well enough, or come from a different culture.
8 increase in population.
