Opinion by Matthew Gwyther: Welcome to Broke Britain 2023 and a new “Winter of Discontent”
LONDON — I was walking on the South Bank of the Thames in central London one evening last week with my black pug. A young man pushing a pram containing his sleeping 3-week-old daughter stopped to admire Percy — an infrequent occurrence, as he’s pug-ugly. The chap said he was taking a breather from caring for his wife, who was in St. Thomas’ Hospital nearby.
On New Year’s Eve, he said, his eight-and-a-half-months-pregnant wife had fallen down the stairs of their home, badly breaking her leg. He called for an ambulance, but none arrived. Nor was one promised to arrive. So he packed his wife, now in agony, into the car and drove her to the hospital. The baby was delivered by emergency Caesarean section, and shortly afterward the mother’s leg was pinned and plated back together in a lengthy operation.
