DOROTHY Waters (letters 26/10) is a little economical with the truth in her criticism of the public services in general and the NHS in particular.
No one in their right mind would agree that we live in a utopia, but it is worth while recording that all public services have been going downhill for the past 30 odd years or more no matter which government was in office.
I could support her views better if she could come up some valid solutions that would improve our lot instead of endeavouring to make political capital out of a situation which we all know exists.
