I doubt that the NHS spends much on those.
It does however spend way too much on management, bureaucracy, procurement and wokery rather than primary healthcare.

More emphasis needs to be put on education rather than cure. What would you cut so as to spend more on education? You don't have to, it's self funding. We spend less than similar counties on health education and prevention and end up spending more on treatments.

While we are waiting for spending on treatments to drop.

NHS is a mess are desperately needs overhauling. State pensions revision is also way overdue — pension costs in Britain are expected to hit £135bn by 2025, which is £2bn higher than education, policing and defence combined, according to an analysis of official figures by The Times.
But which party is going to admit the country and pensioners need to face greater hardships than the current cost of living and housing crisis, NHS meltdown, and disjointed transport schemes in order to get the U.K. sorted…?

We spend less than similar counties on health education and prevention and end up spending more on treatments. is the original link talking about the uk or england , as it seems very unclear to me. As we know andrew , there is no uk nhs , nor uk government uk nhs spending as health is devolved and has been for nearly a quarter of a century. The original link also mentions daily pcr testing in england . So is this conflation between england and the uk , or head in the sand regarding devolution?
Scotland has more confidence in NHS than rest of UK, poll shows
SCOTS have more confidence in the NHS than anyone else across the rest of the UK, a fresh YouGov poll has found.
In response to a survey asking “how confident are you, if at all, that the NHS would be able to treat a health need for you and your family quickly and efficiently?”, Scotland came out as the only demographic showing a positive ratio for confidence (+2%).
A total of 50% of respondents from Scotland said they had confidence in the health service compared to just 34% in England, 23% in Northern Ireland and 40% in Wales.
From the thread though , there seems quite a bit of opposition to the nhs in england andrew. It seems to be yet another massive dividing line between scotland and england.....perhaps another reason why we should go our seperate ways.? we know from the recent redifeld and wilton poll that scots dont trust the uk government on many areas , especially health...
How much of englands health spending (or the uk as a whole if thats what the data is showing?) is being spent on labour and tory nhs privatisation , pfi debt and so on ? Didnt i also read prior to covid that the tory government had spent less on health in england than any other government in history in terms of as a percentage of gdp?

Out of next years NHS budget what would you cut to fund this increased spending on education?

Hello this is 999… which pronoun do you require? Emergency operators are warned to ask callers how they want to be referred to rather than 'misgendering' them based on their voices
NHS 999 call-centre staff were told they should not use Sir or Madam One trust stated preferred pronouns should be sought even in emergencies
