    Well duh. We definitely need a much stronger focus on public health and primary care rather than leaving problems on waiting lists until they are harder (and more expensive) to solve.

      Nah, if you leave people on waiting lists they give up, turn to private options or just die, so it’s no longer your problem. That’s the cost saving approach the NHS uses for mental health services.
