Well that would go someway to satisfying the promise if brexit was going to yield an overall short term economic dividend. It is almost universally accepted that it won't, so whilst a commitment to spend more on health is good news (how good, depends on where the additional spending is proposed to be sourced from...), all it proves is that remain could have driven an equally big red bus around promising a substantially higher net increase in funding for the NHS as they weren't proposing to crash the economy in exchange for it.Originally Posted by life on mars
You realise when the government makes a spending pledge there is a good chance it is coming out of the pockets of working people? It isn't the kind of benevolence that your various posts suggest you think it is, or should be viewed as.
