Yes but why can't the media - or public, generally - review these developments in a coherent and joined up way?
How can politicians be allowed to concoct such fantasies as £350 million for the NHS a week if we stop co-operating with our neighbours in Europe and commit economic self-harm - and not ask why the NI hike is needed for the NHS?
The media & public seem to me complicit in this post truth fantastical new world we live in. The dots never get joined; the lights never go on. We dwell in gloomy non-refective silos, where intelligence can't be heard.

Your NI will go towards more private planes, booze in the mini bar at No. 10 and No. 11. Then any change will probably be used on more tacky decor and a private duck pond.
I think you are right, and the NHS wastes far too much much money on overpriced rubbish and frills.
Middle managers for starters.
