A sustainable pharmacy network that increases patient access to essential NHS care – Now that is a news story that will never be touched

By Liz S

Brexit has had many negative impacts in the UK.

Unfortunately the two main UK parties were and still are more focused on trying to out Brexit each other to care about it’s damaging consequences, hence why Reeves, Kendall, Starmer are currently punishing the “many” to protect the “few”.

Scotland’s model for pharmacy offers lessons for England’s future

Now that is a news story that will never be touched by the BBC Reporting Scotland news team as they are way too consumed in trying to convince us that Scotland should follow England, in everything, especially all of the things that have failed there.

The lesson from Scotland could not be clearer: invest in a robust and sustainable pharmacy network that increases patient access to essential NHS care

This in turn will reduce cost and demand pressures on other parts of the NHS, improving patient satisfaction and health outcomes

Woah…in the name o the wee man….steady on.

This is Twilight Zone stuff surely, or at least akin to a parallel Universe declaration !

Has no one told them that the message is always to be that the SNP have destroyed the Scottish NHS, which includes everything that is connected to it as a Health system, like say , Pharmacies.

Where many assumptions are to be made, as no comparisons by the BBC Scotland news teams are ever done with other UK nation’s NHS services, including the Pharmacy Service within the UK , so incorrectly the Scottish public are to always think that Scotland is the worst NHS service in the UK !

The better Scottish Pharmacy service is hushed up by BBC Scotland as that does not fit into the narrative that the BBC Scotland news teams are constantly determined to promote as (their) reality which is that ‘Scotland is Sh***’ and the SNP are bad, really really bad.

The BBC Scotland narrative is one that always favour the opinions , the position and opposing arguments of all of the opposition parties in Scotland,.

Also the BBC news teams in Scotland always have room to promote the #SNPBAD statements from UK politicians as well.

As whenever they , as UK politicians, come up here on a wee visit to check out what else they can steal from Scotland and also to check out those things they have already stolen from us , such as our Scottish resources or our Scottish food and drink, while their subliminal and sometimes even direct message is one that is always telling Scotland that we need them more than they need us.

Have the BBC Reporting Scotland news teams ever said anything that is positive that they connect to the SNP, if they must announce anything that is positive then they frame it in such a way that those who oppose it , as an SNP incentive, then dominate that news story. The positivity then gets lost or rather it morphs into yet another #SNPBAD.

Favoured terms and words used by BBC Reporting Scotland team include…. But, however, critics say, the opposition parties say and of course their OTT and fake descriptions that include words such as fiasco, catastrophe and scandal.

So how about this:

‘Scotland’s Pharmacy service is far better and more organised than England’s, this is a “catastrophe” for BBC Reporting Scotland and it would be a “fiasco” for the BBC if it were to be widely reported elsewhere in Scotland via other media. Indeed for the BBC that would be a “Scandal”, “but” not for the SNP , just for the BBC, in their failure to highlight it. “However” this would confirm yet again how biased the BBC news team were in Scotland, indeed “some critics say” they have many examples of their BBC bias towards the “opposition parties” and also against the SNP.

That’s the real “news where we are” regarding the BBC Scotland news teams, surely ?

Vote SNP in 2026 as a first step to stop this from continuing to happen to Scotland, where eventually we may finally get the ‘actual real news where we are’, from a real Scottish’ televised media.

  1. I had occasion out of curiosity to seek info from folks in Scotland, Ireland, England, and the US on the price of the drugs I was prescribed to extend my survival a couple of years back – Nothing special for unhealthy OAPs pretty much anywhere – For background, I pay for my unsubsidised medication in Romania but can’t and don’t grumble – To discover it’s 10% of the charge in the US for the same drugs was to say the least a shocker.

    Beyond the E&W nonsense over prescription charges, it boils down to 114.50 quid PER DRUG PER year, so in my case 458 quid/year or $600 – In Romania at full market price, $439 – In the US 4,390 – Scotland 0.00 – Little wonder Wes Streeting is duoing the ‘can’t afford it’ fairy with Reeves from the ‘Black Hole Freezes’, the con is on…

  2. The NHS in England will, to great fanfare adopt the model used in Scotland, but will not mention Scotland, but claim the model to be adopted is ‘innovative out-of-the-box thinking’. The unionist parties and their media chums in Scotland will demand to know why Scotland cannot institute such a system.
