Sophy Ridge asks this of the prime minister as they move on to two of his most contentious promises - the "50,000 more nurses" and "40 new hospitals".
The PM concedes that there will actually only be 31,000 new nurses, while the others are those who - he says - "who would leave the system unless we put the investment in now".
"When you’re talking about delivering more nurses most people would not accept that people who are already working in the NHS are new nurses," the interviewer points out.

In regard to the seed funding for hospitals that we mentioned a couple of posts ago, Mr Johnson says: "You don’t put seed funding into schemes that have no merit. We’re talking about tens of millions of pounds to start architects’ drawings, to start business cases, to start planning permission to get these things going, that’s what you need to do and that’s what we are doing.This is a very dynamic and very ambitious government."
