Fan of Wes Streeting .... that Kate Andrews?
Not even accurate about health spending... Did she say we're the 6th highest spenders on health care? More like 15th.
You'd think someone would put their hand up and say "What's your connection with all the Tory thinktanks on Tufton Street?"
And that's a bad thing because? The private companies don't make profits?State spending and total spend are different. Comparing different models is always going to skew outcomes, if we break down a couple of peer countries;
Germany (state) spends ~8.5% of GDP on healthcare with another 4% of GDP spend coming from “private” models
France state ~9.2%, private 3%.
UK the state pays ~12%
So whilst we spend less overall than Germany and France the state covers considerably more.
And that's a bad thing because? The private companies don't make profits?

Some of her earlier work
Every fucking week she's either Sky papers/Times News radio or the bastard BBC News channel.She gotten way more airtime than she deserves. Along with Farage she pops up on every channel talking shite and patronising anyone left of her views.
Owen Jones tore her a new one on BBC News in the papers review and was subsequently "barred" from appearing again.
