[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 2453962, member: 41885"] You are an intelligent man. You know that covid had needed massive amounts of extra funding, and so do the measures needed to get waiting lists down due to the NHS being underfunded for over a decade, plus the treatments put on hold due to covid. If I go to Tesco and buy £100 worth of food, and have £50, they will quite rightly refuse to accept my payment as enough. If i then add £20 to my offer, its still not enough. The question is not how much money is being given, but how much is needed to undo the decade of underfunding, and move forward with enough funding to pay for what it costs. Quite apart from the huge rise in costs and numbers of people needing treatment, some of which is due to underfunding for a decade in other areas. I am not getting into a discussion about the reality or otherwise of covid as some perceive it. This funding issue is basic maths, not rocket science. [/QUOTE]
