Private firms providing services to NHS made £1.6bn profit in two years, research finds | NHS | The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/apr/13/private-companies-nhs-services-profit-chpi-research

"The £1.6bn in profits made in 2023-24 and 2024-25 would have been enough to pay for 9,178 doctors or 19,428 nurses during that time, according to the Centre for Health and the Public Interest."

Then people wonder why the NHS struggles for money. But this was predictable, and no doubt the plan all along.

There was a time when we considered improving the #EnergyEfficiency of #backend services by switching from interpreted to compiled languages, out of concerns about #ClimateChange. Then came the #CryptoMining farms, AI #hyperscalers and #neoclouds - monstrosities that #pollute grotesquely and guzzle as much power as some nations. And people quit talking about climate change. Everyone seems to have given up in despair and accepted their fate!

Damn those #profiteering #psychopaths!

"Trump is surrounded by people who are making money from the war; each day of war strengthens a warmongering lobby with personal access to the president. As the war lengthens, the chance that it will be exploited for a coup attempt increases."

"Oil and gas giants, big banks, industrial agriculture companies and defence companies are likely to make RECORD profits from the crisis, profits made possible by soaring prices and global instability.
No company should be allowed to profiteer from a crisis leaving millions struggling to afford the basics. That’s why the Government must introduce bigger taxes on companies making eye-watering profits off the back of the Iran war, and use the money raised to provide direct cost of living support and head-off the next crisis by investing in renewable energy."

As the impacts of the Iran war ripple through the global economy, things are set to get even worse. This illegal war has caused chaos, devastation and instability, and now it’s driving up the cost of fuel, food and everyday essentials here at home. Households are already feeling the pressure from rising fuel prices and further disruption is on...

Yes, everything you say resonates loud & clear. Why don’t they [Big Oil, Big Gas] surprise us all by agreeing pleasantly to share their “windfall profits” with the country that hosts them? (Don’t answer: rhetorical!)
