Some 8,000 members – or 22% – of the current fully qualified workforce are over 55 and 10% are 60 or over, according to party analysis of NHS figures.

I am not so sure if it’s terrifying or maths. If GPS start at 25 (say) that gives them 40 years to work. If the population is maintained then 50% of GPS should be over 45 and 25% of GPS should be over 55. So the stat (22%) in the article seems low? And 12.5% should be over 60 so again the stats seem low? Am I completely missing something?
This is a pretty terrifying figure! Why does the NHS keep getting worse despite the budget for the NHS being almost half of our total spending in the UK? Got to be total mismanagement by the government and the NHS trusts.
