OpenDemocracy article is a little worrying
According to the linked article : Peter Thiel claimed the NHS “makes people sick” and that health service reforms should “in theory, just rip the whole thing from the ground and start over”.
Call me a bit overly cautious, but he doesn't sound like someone who it's wise to give half a billion quid of NHS money to, because there's a slight suspicion after reading his comments that he might have reasons for the project not to be enormously successful, given that he wants to obliterate the entire system. Not that it's any of his business anyway as a non-Brit, oh wait, the NHS probably will actually be his privately owned business if they carry on handing chunks of its work to him like this.........
