"The infantile games played by Mr Corbyn and almost every Labour leader for the past 40 years in order to “weaponise” the NHS, as Ed Miliband put it in 2015, prevent politicians from making improvements for the benefit of the taxpayers who fund it and want it to work properly.
The Conservatives have shied away from reform for fear of being accused of privatising the NHS not just by Labour but by the great army of NHS employees who are wary of change, even though they know its top-heavy structures and inflexible systems are inimical to delivering the top quality health care that could be available to all.
Rightly or wrongly, the Conservatives are not only wedded to the NHS pretty much as it is established but their spending promises are only marginally less generous than their opponent’s. An analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies says that under Labour, the NHS would receive 2.3 per cent more funding by 2023 than the Tories have planned for. The NHS budget will have risen by £40 billion in the 10 years of Conservative-led government, hardly the actions of a party intent on running it down."

Disinformation. .. the NHS has in the last 10yrs has gone from bein in the black to the red there are stats if you care to look.
Creeping privatisation has raped the most lucrative services.
The last health minister wrote a book on how best to achieve a private health service in the UK so it's not surprising that the NHS has been cut to the bone in the hope of exposing 'flaws'.
You can't rely on the conservatives on figures, they don't have any costing they never do and boris invents new hospitals daily...6, no 40 new ones! Pure fantasy :/
