@erskine Hi there 👋 I was listening to #BBC #Radio4 this morning and here was the argument they presented on behalf of the Times:

p1 The 'country' doesn't have enough money
p2 We can have an #NHS or spend on 'other' #SocialProgrammes
q We can't have both

I didn't hear the whole show but simple repetition of this puts it into the minds of the peeps that 'Oh no! That's awful but if the BBC are saying it, it must be true'

There are many issues with the argument not least its BS
