don't start threads if you don't want people to respond. We are only 13 days into this year if a budget was granted last year to last however long would the govt not be asking where their funds had gone?

Nowhere in the article you posted is the merest whiff that there has been any budgeting errors, the first and last years figures may have been granted but what of those in the middle? they have not, meanwhile the PM is lying about what provision the NHS has ...why?

'the £8bn figure was at the lower end of projections of the NHS’s needs. “The original modelling suggested a funding requirement in five years’ time of between £8bn and £21bn, depending on the level of efficiency which could be produced, the continuing availability of social care relative to rising need'

They were given the bare minimum knowing that all profit making areas had been cherry picked and all that was left was a bleeding stump where they had been.
