As far as the NHS is concerned, I would remind you that the Conservatives stripped a huge layer of management out of the NHS after they came to power in 2010 and nobody seems to have noticed! We have a way to go yet. Problems are not resolved just by throwing money at them and the measure of a well-run service is not how heavily they are sponsored by the State.

Anyone who cares to look back at the amount of debt, in real terms, will see it has risen for 40 years. It’s an absolute fallacy to blame the Labour Party for 40 years of flawed neo-liberal capitalism. Ten years on from New Labour there is still a defecit, and more debt than ever.

Old Boy doesn’t care for facts. Merely obfuscation of reality to blame Labour for everything.

Profits creamed off, less spent on patient care. Glorious for shareholders I’m sure.
