We do not need a strong economy to pay for the NHS. We need a strong NHS as a pre-condition of a strong economy. Government spending always comes before tax revenues can flow in. Never more true than the moment we are in now.

Having a strong NHS to get a strong economy is particularly true right now with so many more chronically sick individuals including many on waiting lists for treatment who can't work because they haven't had that treatment.
