@NHSNaziHunters @katemasters67 @guardian Not if they don't admit to having caused the damage in the first place, no. That's the whole point.

@C7RKY@katemasters67@guardian and shame ECtHR has said you have no right to insist on a treatment :) -
@NHSNaziHunters@katemasters67@guardian What about those deemed 'of overall benefit to the patient'? We can still insist then in NHS, no? -
@C7RKY@katemasters67@guardian on paper But they just use faked 'QALY' figures to make expensive treatments seem no better than cheap ones! -
@NHSNaziHunters@katemasters67@guardian Yes, I'd heard a whisper along those lines previously. Not something I've researched tbh.

@C7RKY@katemasters67@guardian you'd have to prove they knew they were responsible though, and did nowt -
@NHSNaziHunters@katemasters67@guardian True. It was never going to be easy to bring a case, even if we had the law - which we haven't.
