Yes, let's look at how we spend our (your) £100billion/year.

Let's sort the lawyers out first of all (£10 billion)

Then let's deduct anything that doesn't directly improve health of patients (About £35billion)

Let's put that £45 billion into pre-school education.

Which will probably save on spending on Doctor's, Nurses and lot's of medications.

(oh, and we subsidise oily fish-ever seen a Fijjian with heart disease?)
