Even at a time when the country is having to come to terms with how much it is spending, the Government have protected the NHS. The NHS which the poorest on our society rely on the most.
Do stop the scare mongering.

It's the ultra-conservative Daily Mail, which has screaming headlines about NHS funding being slashed in real terms, because the budget rise was less than the rise in inflation.
The Tory press are the ones who are doing the scaremongering. Suprisingly.
'...there was further controversy after it emerged that next year’s NHS funding rise is below the level of inflation – meaning the amount of money available is in reality a cut. This breaks an election pledge by the Tories for real-term increases.'
