I have been proud to be a blood donor, as the 'public good will' nature of Britain's blood services are proven to be more effective and ethical than the privatised systems in eg the USA. Sadly, the Westminster government is going further than ever in privatising our donated blood services (with the involvement of US companies) :

We can retain our blood services within a public NHS. This way, we can avoid the inefficiency of private profiteering from blood that is freely given... and it would convince me to remain a blood donor!
