The model of privatisation of health preferred by the private sector is unlikely to be the full spectrum preferred by ideologues but rather the current (highly profitable) model of cherry picking off the standardised, non-critical, low risk (established) procedures which can butters 'super-profits' - and a key example of that model is outsourced NHS eye care.

This is not the future, this draining of money form the NHS into private profits is already here!
