Britain loves to celebrate its great institutions β the NHS, the BBC, Parliament, the lot. But let's be honest: some of them are held together with Sellotape and nostalgia.
Put the items in your preferred order.

The NHS
We put it on the side of a Brexit bus, we gave it a standing ovation during a pandemic, and yet waiting lists have never been longer. Is our love for the NHS part of the problem?

The BBC
Once the gold standard of world broadcasting, the BBC now lurches from scandal to culture war to funding crisis. Is it still the nation's broadcaster or just a very expensive argument?

The House of Commons
PMQs looks like a sixth-form debating society after too many energy drinks. When did Parliament stop being a place of serious governance and start being a theatre for point-scoring?

Royal Mail
Once a point of national pride, Royal Mail now delivers parcels to your neighbours three streets away and calls it a success. Is it time to admit the red postbox is just a museum piece?

British Rail (and its successors)
Decades of privatisation, renationalisation chat, and eye-watering ticket prices later β and the 7:42 to Manchester is still 40 minutes late. At what point do we stop calling this a transport system?
