How much £ are we talking? I suspect the amount of money needed to supply the Libre to all who want it across the Nhs would be thousands of % higher than the size of a grant that would make a significant difference to the well being of fellow diabetics in a third world country

I have no problem with it, £2 mil is a tiny amount in the grand scheme of things - anything that helps others is ok by me
