Lacking stability

[Asterix]

Just come to my attention in the last 2 months that UK Pharmacy in general is lacking stability. The reason I say this is because:
- remote supervision
- more and more pharmacy schools opening
- some gp's opening up pharmacies/dispensaries within their own surgery therefore eliminating need to go to a local pharmacy
- independets having to fire staff due to category m cuts


Is this a bad phase where there will be unemployment, wage cuts etc in the next 5 year. It seems to me that the UK is very unstable compared to USA, Canada etc in this issue.

So are we unstable?

Re: Lacking stability

In all my nigh 60 years in pharmacy, have always been doom and gloom. However, would agree that next few years could be rather rocky for a basic pharmacist. Me, I will be gone at end of next year.
