> You might as well worry about the privatization of the NHS next.
There's quite a lot of private provision already in the NHS.
Forensic Mental Health Units tend to be privately run hospitals, especially the medium and high secure units. There's a few privately run in-patient units treating eating disorder (especially for children). Drug and alcohol rehab is often provided by 3rd sector groups.
It's all free at the point of delivery, and paid for by the NHS, but there's plenty of private provision within the NHS already and it's only going to grow.
