The welfare system includes the NHS and social care, that’s why it’s called a ‘cradle to grave’ system.
The privatisation programme is a nasty joke at your expense. You pay a lot and get rubbish.
Another example of this is how the Tories pay Atos and Maximus a fortune to keep checking that people with permanent and degenerative disabilities and illnesses are still disabled and ill at regular intervals. A complete waste of money, but a nice little earner for the private companies.
Comments like ‘[o]ld age does not, and should not, make you be forced to follow a Corbyn/Stlalin/Kim Young Un/Maoist socialist agenda’ are pantomime gold and nothing more than an ‘appeal to ridicule,’ look it up.
I totally agree with the OP, the sooner these things are renationalised with improved in-built protections, the better. Private companies should not be allowed to exploit and abuse vulnerable people for profit.
