Imagine a UK Govt . Minister having to get up and explain why he isn't going to put more $$$ into the NHS going forward? Sure some taxes will go up - but the search for cuts will also be wide ranging.
What capabilities do you keep?
NHS budget is bloated, has been for decades and will remain so.
Govt has got the balls to do a root and branch review which is why you have some hospitals that are world beater and others where the paint is peeling and no money in decades.
