The Health of Nations

"The Democrats are pushing for Universal HealthCare while thousands of people are marching in the UK because their U system is going broke and not working. Dems want to greatly raise taxes for really bad and non-personal medical care. No thanks!"

So tweets Donald Trump, at least paying the march the attention that the BBC refused to pay it.

"I may disagree with claims made on that march but not ONE of them wants to live in a system where 28m people have no cover. NHS may have challenges but I’m proud to be from the country that invented universal coverage - where all get care no matter the size of their bank balance"

So retorts Jeremy Hunt.

But whereas Trump is merely ignorant, Hunt is a liar. The NHS now rations 26 medical treatments, and 75 per cent of Trusts are in deficit.
