I agree that the NHS does need funding, but to the actual people who do the work, not pen pushing management (there's an oxymoron for you)

Given the NHS is staffed by immigrants many of who come from outside the EU not sure how immigration is going to change, and now that UK based nurses will have to pay for their training, immigrants working in the NHS is vital for it to survive

Totally right,the obsession against immigration.
Never recognising the need and benefits of it is more a damaging stance,than any negatives of immigration itself.

Incidentally to Jaxie,I doubt any serious political observer would claim Corbyn was a supporter of Tony Blair, his voting record against the Blair govt.is well documented.
New Labour was a silly title anyway,oddly enough for voters however,they flocked to it.
