SOMEBODY CALL A DOCTOR! | A grumpy British man raps about the Tories killing the NHS.

- Опубликовано: 15 дек 2022
- One of the best things about the UK is our National Health Service (NHS). And sadly it's being destroyed, mainly by many successive years of Tory government, who are happy to see the NHS being chopped to bits and privatised.

Sorry for the swearing but sometimes it's very justified
Facts Dan. Facts
It's facts you're not telling lies and the US is about to be in the same situation as you guys much love from the US
Don't mind it..it's a decent amount still 😂
I don't care about the swearing! An adult anyways lmao
А разве что-то плохо в матах? Мат - слово. Зная место, где его можно вставить оно будет иметь нужный эффект. Ты ведь человек, как и все мы, так что всё ок. Ты делаешь прекрасную музыку, продолжай делать это, а мы, фанаты, поддержим. 😊 Well, sry for little bit of Russian. I just wanted to say that you great man!
These days are tough times, tougher than how they should be, another master piece Sir Dan
thank you!
@@danbull you keep spitting fire stuff like this the media will start calling you a far right extremist and demand you be silenced XD
One way or another glad your keeping it real and have the balls to talk bad about big pharma
Genuinely good on you M8
Boris Johnson put more money into the NHS in his short tenure than Tony Blair did in his massive tenure...
The NHS is the most over funded bloated mediocre service in the world, it fundamentally doesn't work because it has no competitors, the staff get paid whether patients live, die or get treated at all, hence why patient care and wait times are appalling.
And now they want 20% more money for doing less every year, yet if they get that pay rise it'll be the equivalent of being able to employ 16,000 fewer nurses next year...
Sure the government has bad polices about the NHS. Not getting rid of it permanently and replacing it with a functional private healthcare system like Australia has (and like the UK used to) but obviously not like the American system.
@@esmeecampbell7396 this is all nonsense!!
@@gabrielmullins8083 what? The NHS? I agree it is nonsense
As someone who's also a brit, and seeing the state of the NHS lately, genuinely I wish things would get better too. It's frustrating that something as promising as the NHS is going down so hard, and the first step to fix it, I think, is to get those twats out of our government and to have someone in that would actually take it seriously.
It breaks my heart
@@danbull Mine too, Dan. Mine too.
Unfortunately it will take years upon years to repair the damage they have done.
Buckle in, NHS is only going to get a lot worse from here. And privatization and Dan's disconnected complaints unfortunately have zero impact on whether it will happen or not.
@@SymmetricalDocking no privatisation will have a huge impact on how much worse it gets. Especially in this economic climate. Apologies in advance if I misunderstood your comment.
As someone who constantly has to get inhalers from the docs, I relate to this so much, because these days, most of the time, I can't see anyone to get the note that I need to get said inhalers...nice to know the government would rather have me cough myself to death
I dread dealing with the docs because they're so under-funded that basic things become huge quests of frustration
@@danbull the issue isn't exactly under funding the pound is overly inflated according to truflation's stats. Last I recall it was at about 18ish% for the pound. The near endless government spending throwing cash at every issue doesn't help anybody when there are no solutions being offered or attempted
It's so silly that you even need a note when you need inhalers regulary and have been using them, why do you need to 'prove' you need them every time?
@@captainhydrodus4616 I mean funding you can't afford anything with is pretty much the definition of underfunded, whether it's because no funds go to the industry, because the funds they get grow increasingly worthless, or both, it's still underfunded. but ya, the issue's not isolated on the medical sector, and relying on or expecting the government to fix this shit - even if they should be accountable for it, they don't exactly have the will or means to solve shit, it's their obsolescent structure that these problems build on - is not going to lead anywhere.

Roses are red
Thorns are prickly
WHAT THE FUCK, THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY
exictly
The importance of repairing the damage done to the NHS cannot be understated. So many people, including myself and several of my loved ones, are only alive and not in worse financial situations because the NHS exists.
I've enjoyed so much of your rapping and am so happy to see this from you as well! Thank you Dan Bull.

@@esmeecampbell7396 20% pay rise is still a pay cut given inflation over the last decade. The root cause is cost of living, and the landlord class scalping the housing market.

Plus they have good pensions, better than private sector.
This is so awesome. Bashing the tories, and taking shots at Starmer & Obama. You're a real one 💯
Its unfortunate these kinda raps dont get alot of attention, theyve always been my favorite from you.
same actually! theyre great. plus his personal albums are great
Yea. I love his political joints. The US republican debate one is hilarious and my fav but I don't mind him being serious too.
Yes
Absoloutely
Agreed, it's one of my most listened to tracks on Spotify.
Swear every year your bars get better Mate glad you still make these raps to open peoples eyes 💯 also you look amazing proper slimed down over the years have a good one brother.
Thank you Adz!
The style of this one resonates with something in me. I don't really know how to describe it, it's like a wave of nostalgia for experiences I haven't had.
interesting
He gets his point across so well that you don't necessarily have to go through the experiences to feel what they make others feel.
i'm 27, had leukaemia, bone marrow transplant, kidney failure and subsequent transplant, a new left hip and waiting for both knees replacing. i wouldn't be here without the \NHS, but i have no faith in any party looking after it.
Love to see you returning to your older style! Would love to see more along these lines
When I was at uni a while back, I made a small scifi short that predicted the NHS would collapse in 2021. You have no idea how much I have been sweating over that fact 😂 The NHS is so important, shown so perfectly by the response to the pandemic, but those in power continue to let it crumble like everything else rn. Not looking good 😔

I'm a brit too and the polotical climate right now is wild! Just feels like they're doing whatever they want, not really caring about the issues, and not really taking responsibility, either. 3 prime ministers over as many months says a lot about the political state of mind in our country right now! I'm glad someone said it. Truly a masterpiece Dan, as always! Keep doing what you do :)
God damn, Dan, I love your game raps. But everytime you do something non game related it's always pure beauty.
Sadly this ruthlessness is necessary!
Looking at the Lilly Alan/Jacob rees-mogg song.
Sadly there will probably be many more topics I have to talk about like this
@@danbull hopefully you will learn that these roots go deep, and institutions like the NHS have been terrible for far longer than just the Tory government that you’ve been alive for.
And if you cover america again, hopefully you do a bit more research.
I’m a big fan of your content fan, and I wouldn’t exactly describe myself a right-leaning, but you often come off as ignorant in your more political raps. I hope they don’t end up becoming stains on an otherwise great channel
@@klen4569 What would you say was the ignorant part in this rap?
@@thedevilffs I think the premise in general doesn’t really make sense. The NHS isn’t dying due to the tories, it’s been slowly rotting for generations regardless of the government. Misplacing your anger like that just leads to hatred towards the conservatives rather than anything meaningful being done.
There’s other videos that show ignorance. in his US gun control video, for example, he either doesn’t understand or just willingly neglects the culture that surrounds guns in America and why many people need one to feel/be safe in their areas. Banning guns in America wouldn’t change anything, as guns are still in circulation. So once again, it just causes people to view Americans as gun crazy lunatics, but serves no useful message or purpose
@@danbull Means a lot to some of us Dan, ty for doing this.
Nailed it! Frustration with health care can be explosive.
Love your work.
Reminder that this has been going on for years. Trans person outside of london here, i cant afford private so have to go through the NHS. Ive been waiting almost 7 years for a consultation. Thanks for bringing this to the forefront Dan, mad love as always and this track slaps more than the government slaps refugees with a criminal label.
The torries have been enforcing open border policy since forever, what the hell are you on about??
Why should I have to pay to fund your mental illness of delusions? Broken system. Burn the NHS down and start again.
Mate I get the pain too, gonna have to deal with the system too which drives one mad a fair point thus forcing me to work part time once I get qualifications just to acquire gender hormone meds because the system sucks that much as a trans person so mate you're not alone, I'm doing it for war against the system.
Enby guy from America here. Good luck with that, I'm trying to get top surgery and my uterus removed and the waiting to hear from them sucks so damn much. Hope you're able to see someone soon.
Honestly it's cheaper and easier for me to go from Wiltshire to Canberra and transition there than it is for me to try and get vital healthcare here!
You sir are a legend.
Beautiful. Thanks for rapping about this topic.
Imagining @danbull rapping this from a lowrider ambulance doing laps up and down Harley street refilled my seretonin for the day. 🤣
Thanks! 🤝
I only just saw this Dan... but my god this is the best work you've ever done.
Is it weird this gives me Russel Howard's good news vibes
I’d love it if Russell Howard got Dan Bull to rap this live on his show! Imagine how many viewers that would get!
he is a nice man
@@danbull as are u
Lol exactly what I was thinking
i keep coming back to this track. amazing work dan im really glad you did the lec cypher and i got to know you
It's refreshing to hear Dan swearing unapologetically.
I may live in the US but the message still resonates with problems here. Fuck politicians, even the "good ones" drag their feet.
You need to do another video with stupendium! Love your content by the way question you need to do a video on what we grew up on as kids the good old days of video games
I mean, necromancy would probably be a helluva lot easier than getting a doctors appointment at the moment🤷♀️
Welcome to America, we been dealing with the same shit over here for decades
MPs get a pay rise but can't, or better wont, raise the salary of the NHS. It's honestly mad and they need to be sacked or own up
100% agree Dan. Great video
Yeah...The church of NHS truly is bad because the Tories, and not other reason what makes the NHS bad.
YOu are welcome to add a counter argument to what i've said in my song, all the disagreeing comments I've seen so far just go "yeah, no you're wrong, you're brainwashed".
@@danbull I respect you as a productive artist and youtuber, I also understand your personal political leaning is left wing, I understand and you have full right to say on your perspective. So I'll leave my brief thoughts on what I think on the socialise healthcare.
I don't see the NHS being good because of the conservatives, it's simply scapegoat excuse, I see The NHS being bad by design itself. The NHS is and always be a socialist project, and anything by socialist is not good. The only reason why NHS made popular is simply down to government controlled media and education that push it constantly, even then The NHS was only good for small uses, low population and simple medical care, yet when patient is wanting treatment more then others, The NHS can't keep up. Becuse The NHS is (and no sugar coating it) always be a socialist program, resources must be rationed to avoid running out, as well on people, the NHS will deside who gets treated first and who will get last, removing agency from the individual who is a patient and made to be in wait, in suffering or not.
I had stories of people I've passed by, a man with a Injured leg at gym tolled to wait 12 hours for the ambulance, a man who Injured his head unconscious outside a Turkish barbershop, told he had to wait 4 hours for ambulance, as well my close friend who suffered from asthma and couldn't get new inhaler in time, without going going through red tape bureaucracy for subscription. Not to mention my face was swollen up and I could barely see, expecting I could go blind, went to a dropped in and at best given permission to get cream from a private pharmacy from Tesco. So you tell I find quite bitterness and dislike to the NHS.
As for my solution, instead of nearly £200 billion a year of the taxpayers money to the hospital, one where you shouldn't fired people to buy for other people's health, I proposed a different means to Prioritize the nhs, course right now you will see me as a heretic and see Capitalism is bad, witch I understand, to think selfishly is evil to many full altruist, yet no one is a full altruist as that's leads to self-sacrifice, and I'm definitely a egoist. I for one, perfer people pay for themselves for treatment, the right to healthcare, not by obligation and government control.
So Dan, if you disagree with me, that's understandable in what you see, as I asked for more privatisation, so more freedom to individual can pay for what one wants by choice, in a competitive free market. So you may want The NHS get better, be controlled by a different party to fix it, so I'll leave a question to yourself. If the conservatives aren't improving the nhs and want it secretly privatise, and you want a different party, what would that party be and why would you choose it?
@@danbull And my thoughts for the song? It got passion thou honestly it's not my cup of coffee, I do agree the inconsistently of the conservative party, as well the poor management of the socialise healthcare, I also disagree with the NHS in general, as I do not like socialists.
You could try a counter rap with Rucka Rucka Ali, as I'm sure the passion of in a philosophy rap, would be interesting to see and hear.
@@samjudge1240 Very nicely put sir. I'm an American so I deal with a different healthcare mess of mishmash of government and private. Personally went for a private charity clinic I help out and get service. And honestly its when he turns from his normal rap style that he makes really good music. A lot of the songs get kind of..samey.
@@als3022 I would say quite Cringe, yet repetitive is another.
I love when you do Political Commentary Raps, i also hope that it motivates people to hold the offices in Power responsible. Also. Immpeccable rhymes as always!
Straight fire 🔥 More like this, please.
The sudden 'thanks Obama made me chuckle
Phenomenal as always brother!! Speak your truth much love and respect!! 🔥✊🏻
I am reminded of one of the big slogans for the Leave people during the Brexit vote, which argued that the membership dues for the EU could have gone to the NHS instead. Keyword: could, since it would appear those same people never gave a shit about the NHS lol
So is the issue that the NHS doesn't get enough funding, or is it (Like most government programs) that the money is used inefficiently and corruptly.
@@als3022 probably both, since the extra money that could go to the NHS is most likely put into the military or businesses under conservative leadership, while the money that does go to the NHS is probably mismanaged by the appointees said leadership put in

You could make an entire album on tory screw ups in this year alone
I really wonder how Boris, Truss and all that have all this money to put into personal trips, 36 nukes and their rich mates, yet somehow can't afford to provide care for the poor, freezing and unwell, or properly pay the people who keep our daily lives functioning
It feels like we're watching musical chairs but the chairs are our lives
Like Ren said in Money Game, "Oh what a shame it would be I would die,-"
(If I typed out the rest, no guarantee I'd survive)
Yeah, this fits pretty well to Germany as well... just different politicians but similar problems with health system :(
I was told that the German healthcare system is better than the British one.
@@undeadwerewolves9463 It is not like it isn't better in many ways, but Covid has surfaced a lot of issues, that have existed for some time.
Some politicians about 10 years ago decided, that hospitals have to be "profitable" as opposed to before... and now people quit their jobs because of pay issues, long hours. But it is not the same level, that we see in the UK.
Thank you Dan xx
peace x
We're having similar trouble over here in Canada. The government always has money to fund new developments and bring frivolous cases to court, but somehow we always need to tighten our purse strings and do more with less when it comes to health care and education. It's currently impossible to get a family doctor where I live - a must for treating any ongoing condition or even getting your test results back. There's literally a waiting line. In education, teachers are getting paid less than a daycare worker while having to take care of 30+ kids at a time, all with a budget of less than a dollar per student for any in-class materials. A gym class can't even afford to buy new balls when the old ones wear out.
Education and health care are such easy targets for politicians. Their benefits take years to come to fruition - long after a politician's career has ended. So when they gut the budget, it's the next generation that suffers for it. Parents complain their kids aren't learning anything useful in school, but refuse to pay more so that teachers can teach them more. People complain that wait times are long and doctors are in a rush, and will claim that they'd rather pay more privately for better care, but aren't willing to pay that money publicly for better care.
It's not like the US is any better. Their private health care and private education has similar wait times and outcomes as those in Canada, but they pay a small fortune for those. At least with national health care, the government has considerable bargaining power to keep insurance and pharma companies in check, but as individuals, there's the ultimate power gap - pay the price or die. And when it comes to education, the only value of paying more for an Ivy League school is that people who came from Ivy League schools want to hire people from Ivy League schools. It's the upper class lifting up the upper class. The worst part is, there's such strong propaganda at so many levels that middle and lower class folks thinks this is the best system for them and that public institutions are more expensive and wasteful. Little do they realize just how much more they spend while getting the same, shitty services.
My experience with the NHS is not good mainly from the receptionists. I crashed my bike and broke my hip and was bleeding. I had a friend take me to hospital limped to the receptionist with blood coming out of my leg/hip and she didn't even look up after I gave her the details... I was told to sit down and wait for a nurse to see me. I sat down and waited 2 hours resulting in a pool of blood in my seat. Once the nurse called me over I got up and she said why didn't I tell the receptionist I was bleeding and I said "I did and she didn't give a rats arse". Then after the wound was covered I had to wait 14 hours for a bed... turns out if your an alcoholic/drug user you get priority bed privileges. Had 2 smackheads opposite me constantly asking to leave yet the nurses were telling them they can.. but they just CBA leaving at the same time dkheads
Thank you for your honesty, Dan.
My gran lives by herself, but has a bracelet button she can press if she falls.
A couple of days go she fell at 11 pm, pressed the button and an ambulance was called and arrived at 6:40 am. She had to sleep on the floor all night, then had to wait in the ambulance until she was seen about 8 hours later.
The NHS is great when it works but the tories are killing it.
Proper banger, god damn
That refrain goes hard. As hard as trying to navigate health insurance and services here in the US. Solidarity, Dan.
Ay wasnt expecting a political rap, great message though love from England
This reminds me of that old rap to lilly Allen, I like it
One thing I liked about that Brexit Bus and it's "£350 million" that could be spent instead on the NHS.
The NHS uses about £40 million an hour. £350 million is almost nothing.
For comparison, membership within the EU saved the UK around £2,400 million in preferential trade taxation.

Dear Dan, wanna say I love that you're putting out socially conscious stuff again. For me this style (esp. your old Open Letters series) has always brought out your best writing. Best wishes, from a fan since way back.
Gotta push these harder my man. Shit hits. And sometimes its important just to have someone put to music what you're feeling. Let's folks know they're not alone.
And this is good music.
From me to you, some southern goon across the pond, hoping yall shakeout okay in Britain
Always love your political songs .....not very frequent, but worth waiting for.
Classic Dan, definitely needed to be said
Well that's the #ChristmasNumber1 sorted! 😹 Couldn't have nailed it harder if you were building a fucking manger.
Been listening to you now Dan for over a decade, lost you for a bit then when you did Kicky Kicky Flow I came back to your music; I can honestly say you’re a legend and I have the utmosts respect for you and your music
Cheers Dan, Legend
This is a good unbiased breakdown of the current situation.
And if this whole thing sounded like a mess that needs cleaning up rather then piling more shit on? That's because it is.
And the fact that the public won't even have a chance to vote in the Labour Party (despite only being slightly better then the Tories) for a few years is insane. Parliament can vote no confidence in the the Government, why can't the British public vote no confidence in Parliament.
Well said. Perfectly sums up all the anger I feel about this whole situation.
I also hate the complacency of many of the populace and just feel immense distaste towards those that support the people killing one of the greatest parts of our country.
Great as always
we need more ambulance hydraulic car shows
If only politicians were as good at their job as Dan is at writing hot bars
If they were then they would solve the problem and be out of a job. Ergo incentivizes them to be terrible at it. And the issue with lifelong politicians.
It's nice to hear some deserved criticism on starmer and obama
Always my favourite kind of Dan Bull content :)

seems the algorithm ain't treating this one right, so I am commenting to boost the videos stats. Ain't even from the UK but I am jealous of your NHS and am sad to see it getting damaged. Best of luck Dan!

Lobster helmets might be a good symbol for displeasure too. Roundhead's unite.
Politicians truly are the worst of humankind
I agree completely. Especially lifelong politicians.
Shit man sorry to hear you guys going thru it rn. Wishing u best of luck
Yes, because labour would be any better. Are you even old enough to remember the last Labour Govt? They made many of the problems we have today in the NHS. It's very existence shouldn't have never been "justified" (as you put it) as it just doesn't work for a 50 million (back then) population. The whole structure should be individual based and this is what the old Tory backbenches were saying in the 50s. But no one listened and now you have what you have because of countless governments failing to address the structure and the structure of funding. Blair did the worst though, please look it up Dan, you are an intelligent person but this song is all what you read on "google" and personal experiences than history and facts. Blair made the management bubble, blair made the locum vacuum (whereby some locums earn up to 600k per annum) etc. Not saying since David have they not added to the problem and not done what was promised. But going for "point scoring" here is just such an immature way of looking at this.
ps good song though :)
However, never should a public healthcare system should been used as a political football to be kicked around with.
Another banger Danny
Respect for tackling issues like this.
My grandad died on christmas eve. I don't want to blame the doctor, but two days prior, he was refused to be seen, given antibiotics and told to be on his way.
I was originally really angry with the doctor, but this made me think. Its not their fault, there just aren't enough of them at the moment. Fuck the tories.
My condolences
This was 🔥 and way too true....
some of these facts I was unaware of
Imagine how bad it is in Canada
These things needed to be said. Yet the muppet are not listening.
Hey Dan. I've also got autism (Asperger's) and I swear, man, I fucking love everything you put out. Thank you for being you. You're an inspiration to a lot of people like me. Hope you know that. Have a fantastic day, man.
Imagine having American style health-care where even the damn ambulance is $2000 one way. This track would be nothing but profanity.
Agreed. I was in a car wreck ten years ago. Thankfully, I wasn't actually injured beyond some pulled muscles, because I declined the ambulance knowing it would've cost me an arm and a leg.
Not often does a song state it so well, even in the US this is exactly what is happening and with the Obama part showed it off. The issue with systems isn't they aren't there or not enough funding, it's that the people put into positions don't do anything to help those below or state one thing and well never try or just play the game of smoke and mirrors.
spent a full week phoning over 200 times a day from the small window of 8:30am to 9:30 to try and get test results back from my doctor (after doing the same just to get through for the tests) every time I could get through was past that 9:30 deadline to be told that the doctor was either no longer in or no slots for phonecalls, but I was told that he had requested that the results be given oncall by him. I was in tears one day after being told the previous to call and i'll for sure get the results only to be told the same stuff as before. it's genuinely awful trying to get through to a point I just leave it till the problem is too bad for me to bear vs catching it early
I didn't expect this, but I like it
I've always liked how specific and evaluative you are when you criticize things
I just waited an hour and 40 mins for my appointment at the gp to see this pop up on my notifications
Well said.
As an american, it feels like watching your whole island sink really slowly
Pretty sure it's the lack of pay that comes from not allowing private functions that was the first step into this whole mess of choking out the care provides want to work on IOUs from the gooberment
Succinctly put Mr Douglby! It's sad seeing an organisation built on the welfare of its cititzens having its funding slashed, but then having the remnants put it into private hands. Thats what it seems to be about these days. It also never ends well when they do this.
They say they don't have the funding to do this...But if they handled Tax Avoidance effectively they could have £32Bn to play with. It's been the same year on year, they don't care. 🤬
I remember when I first saw your Minecraft raps and vibed to it while working. Now I offer an invitation to the farm.

Haha, that chorus :D
Nice track man 👏👏
@Dan Bull I am going to start my radio show with this tonight!
Thank you for this. Sometimes it's at least a small comforting knowing other people also see how downright awful things have got. I hope that the UK can kick the Tories out soon, even if Starmer isn't exactly a great alternative (tbh I'd like to give the Green Party a go but with the current state of the voter base, it doesn't look likely they could get enough vote to secure leadership).
Greens are loonies who will ruin the economy to achieve nothing for the planet because the UK is comparatively fine compared to China and USA.
Boris Johnson put more money into the NHS in his short tenure than Tony Blair did in his massive tenure...
The NHS is the most over funded bloated mediocre service in the world, it fundamentally doesn't work because it has no competitors, the staff get paid whether patients live, die or get treated at all, hence why patient care and wait times are appalling.
And now they want 20% more money for doing less every year, yet if they get that pay rise it'll be the equivalent of being able to employ 16,000 fewer nurses next year...
Sure the government has bad polices about the NHS. Not getting rid of it permanently and replacing it with a functional private healthcare system like Australia has (and like the UK used to) but obviously not like the American system.
Loves this!
