A lot of people don't agree however, and they think the UK is going "down the pan".

In a similar vein I often see people complain about the NHS. Obviously it has issues, and yes sometimes it doesn't cover something you think it should. But it is world-class both in treatment and research.

Research I grant you, but for treatment, quality is very unevenly distributed. The Welsh NHS is appalling enough that I've considered relocating to England for this reason alone.

Interesting, I'd never head about that. Is Wales historically poorer than it's neighbors?
