The Conservative Party

Not sure if you’re being serious. But some facts from the BMA to shed some light. Which party has been in power for the period in question?

”Healthcare spending has increased nearly every year since the NHS was established. This is necessary to meet increasing demand: the population has grown, and more people are living longer with more complex health issues.

However, in the decade preceding the COVID-19 pandemic, UK health funding grew at a slower pace than before, with a growth rate falling below the long-term average. The pandemic triggered additional funding injections, which were much needed but did not make up for historic underspend. Between 2009/10 and 2021/22, the cumulative underspend – the difference between what funding would have been if historical growth rates had been maintained, and what was actually provided – reached £322 billion in real terms.

The most recent 2023 Spring Budget made no new announcements on health funding, with commitments made in the Autumn 2022 Statement set to remain unchanged for the remainder of the Spending Review period (ending 2024/25), despite high inflation eroding the value of the planned funding.”

I wasn't.

I was paraphrasing the usual Tory fans in this thread.

Another grinning Tory goon explaining why there is no room for humanity or sympathy.
Saying "people who use the system should pay for it".

That may be an argument when they start charging Prisoners for their stay at her majesties Pleasure, or his Majesty the King pays a fair amount of Council tax for Buckingham Palace, but really it is just a way to screw money out of previously law abiding tax payers.

No doubt him and his mates take full advantage of the Subsidised Bar and Food in the House of Commons.

I think the Tory answer is that these migrants should go back home, and leave their British children to British social services to look after. That will send more councils into bankruptcy. Rules is rules.

just a gentle reminder that the King would only have to pay band H council tax for his 200+ roomed palace
