I trust the NHS in his hands more.

Osborne struggles to explain how Ł8bn for NHS would be funded

George Osborne, chancellor of the exchequer, has just appeared on the Marr show. Andrew Marr pressed him on yesterday’s Tory pledge to find an extra Ł8bn for the NHS.

“It’s part of our balanced plan”, said Osborne, when asked where the money was coming from. “That’s not really an answer,” responded Marr.

“We have always said we supported the NHS’s own plan for its sustainable future, so we offer the best health care in the world and the best medicines ... and because we have that balanced economic plan and because we are prepared to take difficult decisions in other parts of government we can go on increasing the money to the NHS.”

Marr interjected: “if you’re not going to tell me where the money’s coming from, I’ll tell you where the money’s coming from. It’s going to come from even deeper cuts in the unprotected departmental spending budget of around 14% in total, so you’re going to hit the police, you’re going to hit the armed forces and you’re going to hit local government to pay for this.”

Ed Miliband has lambasted the Conservatives’ pledge to provide an additional Ł8bn of health spending a year as akin to trying to “fund the NHS on an IOU”.

The Labour leader was speaking on the day the future of the health service leapt to the top of the political agenda. Miliband announced that if elected his government would provide 3,000 extra midwives to ensure women giving birth have one-to-one maternity care.

Miliband also criticised the surprise announcement from George Osborne in the Guardian on Saturday that the Conservatives would provide an additional Ł8bn each year above inflation to fill the funding black hole in the health service. The chancellor said his party’s funding pledge demonstrated an “absolute commitment” to meeting the Ł30bn-a-year funding gap by the end of the decade, as identified by Simon Stevens, the chief executive of NHS England.

An extra 8 billion pledged to the NHS by the tories does not amount to a health service under threat from them ... no need for further discussion

You believe what you like, I think there's plenty to discuss, personally I feel it's nothing more than the floundering of a party that's failed on this issue for 5yrs.

I will and do thanks!

All I have seen from labour supporters is attacks on Tory policy. Policy that people will either agree with or not. I would be much more interested in reading the positives of what labour have to offer over the positives of what the tories have to offer. Negativity will not win this election, I am 100% sure of that

I believe that Labour will do a lot for the NHS but the money has to come from somewhere and I would imagine we will see tax rises, NI rises and fuel duty rises. My worry with both Labour and Conservative government that the cost will be paid from hard working lower middle classes who already pay more than enough.

Negativity is all that ever wins elections in this country. People vote out of fear. Whoever successfully makes the other party seem scarier will win.

All I've seen from tory supporters are attacks on Eds mug! no mention of policies at all so I think personally at least I'm ahead there
Whoever appeals to the widest range of voters has won, oh we'll raise the lowest rate of tax...and lower the highest...and give the NHS 8 million... and not raise VAT.
Why have I got my fingers crossed behind my back?.... er, I have an affliction that affects my joints and my verbal reasoning.
