I'm afraid money for the NHS, is money for the NHS. Trying to cosmetically obscure cuts by different funding/budgets is half the problem. It all has the same result in the end. Best not to get ill in the coming years if you can help it.
The chronic shortage of nurses, which will be further exacerbated by Brexit, is the major oncoming crisis. Making them take out loans/get a degree to look after the rest of us is a genius Govt plan. What graduate would want a nurses pay on top of a loan?
Hospitals are having to cancel Theatre lists worth tens of thousands, as they aren't able to hire covering nursing staff (source, Mrs K who is in the thick of it). The system is being deliberately set up to fail - Jeremy Hunt's objective, thats why amazingly he's kept his job
