It is the same in hospitals around the world. I work on the hospital mergers in Canada. It was all a part of the corporate agenda - running hospitals like businesses, which requires Profit First! I want the whole world to come to realize this fact, this truth. Thank you.
@tokenspirit6140 What we discovered was when the idea of 'running a hospital like a business' was introduced in the NHS, spare beds were classed as waste, so they were reduced to run at 99.9% capacity. empty wards were vilified in the press. Then the pandemic hit. hence 7 million on a waiting list. but it also served their agenda of forcing citizens to turn to private health, making the NHS a emergency service in a 2 tier system.
Dont forget that a huge component of National Insurance is paid by your employer, and scrapping it would mean that they (and their owners) would get to pocket that money. If they remove national insurance and put up income tax and not corporation tax, they're robbing you to give your employer a tax cut.
NI is not a tax as any economist will tell you. It is a contribution to the welfare state and is needed to support organisations such as the NHS. Tax is levied on people who have earned and unearned incomes. I think Mr Hunt needs to be educated and read the national insurance acts that define what the NI contribution is all about. He also needs to get clear in his own mind what the definition of tax is.
@@andrewmackay1350 That is how NI started out, yes. But nowadays the money goes straight into the Treasury coffers along with all other tax money. Hypothecation was abandoned quite a while ago and now NI is just a tax like any other. So it would be fair to abolish Employee NI and increase income tax to compensate, spreading the burden onto unearned income as well as wages.
The removal of NI is to complete the privatisation of our NHS . The ooh we gave x£billions to the NHS but they arn't working is because that money goes strait out to outsourcing of NHS work so profit can be taken out of the money for our NHS . We the people want our NHS NOT PRIVATE TREATMENT DONE IN OUR HOSPITALS HOSPITALS THAT ARN'T FALLING DOWN BECAUSE OF 14 YEARS OF TORY CORRUPTION. WE THE PEOPLE WANT A GENERAL ELECTION NOW.
Speak for yourself. The NHS is very poorly run, countless non productive hordesof managers squandering tax payers money. France, Germany Sweden have far better systems - efficient,clean, ultra modern services. The NHS is a joke!!!!!
The NHS is NOT fit for purpose! Look to France, Germany, Sweden to see how a health service should be run and funded! To be fair they do not employ (on colossal 6 figure salaries) countless inefficient managers.
What I found infuriating was when Hunt took a swipe at Angela Raynor about a second home or something when he owns nine and rents out seven of them,by the way he has raised the rent on them by twice the rate of inflation.
Yes hypocrites the lot of them! Nobody can have anything except for them. Don't like it that as a woman from her background she can still do well and she has.Good for her I say. Picking on Starmer yest becoming personal. Like a bunch of kids. If they would get on with the things that matter things might improve. Hopefully not for just them as they have been doing. They have shown up the class system like no other Govt before them.
The best way to demonstrate the disgusting behaviour of this government. Not with bluster, with simple economic breakdown of the joke that this budget truly is.
Heydidn't actually do that, he just floated it so that shows like Politics Live, scumrags like The Sun, breakfast shows and Question Time, etc, can tell the numpties that the Conservatives want to get rid of their taxes, forcing Labour to make the case for National Insurance.
It is costed, they're using money from the OBR projections, changes to non-dom tax and increasing the energy windfall tax. OBR is all nonsense but it makes sense within the Tory framework.
Lizz Truss had the right ideas she just rushed into them too soon. Twice rejected and unelected Sunak and Hunt took over after sterling fell drastically. Yet we soon discovered this was due to the Bank of England selling gilts just at wrong time, not her policies, coincidence?????? Yet during Sunaks and Hunts time its fallen further, yet strangely no call for them to go. If Truss had remained in office our economy would have been growing by now, instead it looks dismal under the imposed drastic duo's incompetent stewardship.
They all have. Ask yourself were does that money come from? It use to come from individuals, today it come from big corporates. Two being, Friends of Israel and BAe Systems. It's not rocket science.
@@KILKennyLaDa9898-js2nr nope. reduced the amount being borrowed, the debt tripled since then. so they didn't fix anything. and also, it was a GLOBAL recession, not a UK recession. they've also stolen from the working and middle classes since.

Then 2010 until now happened, no one has a living wage. everything they promised with brexit wasnt delivered. they blame the pandemic for absolutely everything. theyve fleeced all of us, and you do yourself a disservice saying gordon browne caused any of that. all tory decisions, all tory mistakes. all tory incompetence. all the wealth at the top. hell. they may even succeed in destroying the NHS for good if they have another term
HowcanHuntclaimto be reducing tax when he blatantly is not.This is deceitful and untrue. He should apologise to the Nation and admit he is a charlatan and incompetent. He must be gone like the rest of them.
Because Tories are LIARS and criminals. I am 63 and they have gotten worse as the years go by. It's always them. They fix all the laws to suit themselves too. They are never in power for the country or the people. Until the law holds them to account nothing will change. But we are being policed by criminals, Liars, Rapists, Pedophiles and murderers too. What chance do we stand when people. Mostly England vote Tories.
Tories don't want to recognise certain people. Benefits are something they want gone. That is their goal. To just magic any support away. Just the same in Covid. Gave people who worked in healthcare professions £500 one week before Xmas. Anyone on any benefits but working though did not get their benefit money in January. They classed that £500 as income! What was the point of that? Made them look good that's all. So risking being in with Covid got workers nowhere.

They are trying to go the American way, "private insurance". I have seen first hand how the American way works. All great until the money runs out, then you are out. Seeing it first hand was disgusting.
I lived in Seattle from 2004-2019. My first job was working in a hospital in finance & patient billing. I saw bills just for an ambulance ride in the thousands of dollars. Tens of thousands for anyone who was hospitalised overnight & took up a bed. This was in the mid 2000s, so I can only imagine how much worse it probably is by now. I had another job (very short lived before I quit in disgust) working for a Health Insurance Co handling complaints. My entire work day consisted of taking calls from people in tears or mental breakdowns because the underwriters refused to pay claims for cancer treatments & such that would cost up to 6 figures, because the insured forgot to disclose a bad back they sought treatment for in the 90s. They abused any excuse they could, to not pay out, despite the premiums they had taken for years. They forced middle class families into bankruptcy, or to have to remortgage their homes to pay medical bills. The U.S. healthcare system is parasitic & gross. We HAVE to fight this tooth & nail or it will be our own reality very soon Never forget that their private healthcare system & pharma corps unleashed the opioid pandemic on their own people, with collusion from the state. The FDA approved Oxycontin's "non addictive" status, gave doctors incentives to over prescribe it, and all of this while the U.S military occupied the country that was producing 95% of the world opium supply. Their government & healthcare industry are 100% responsible for the Fentanyl addiction issue that has caused rampant homelessness & death within their own borders. When the opioid epidemic became public knowledge, doctors pulled patients prescriptions, and many turned to heroin and this turned into Fentanyl later on. I can remember being prescribed a week's worth of Oxy after a simple dental extraction, when it was at its most heinous. GPs & dentists were literally handing this killer drug out like sweets

She didnt like being challenged! If i increase the state pension by £3000 but you have to be takes because you are £3000 over the tax limit by £1000, you are not worse off, was the question she couldnt answer. The SNP said that Gordon Brown is also responsible for borrowing more and handing the bill over to the tax payer and she didnt like that truthful fact. She is already dodging the questions yet not even in power........
Boris and Sunak brought in the rise in Ni suposedly to fund and "cure" social care. So does yesterday's budget mean that the tories have abandoned social care? 😢
That pledge was abandoned almost as soon as it was made. Only weeks after announcing it, the percentage that was to be allocated to the social care sector was re-allocated to the NHS for the next five years as the NHS was deemed to have the greater need. Sunak either didn't understand or didn't care how underpaid and undervalued those working in social care already felt. Intially, that money, while promised, wouldn't be available for five years. That was bad enough but there was the hope that it's on its way. No it isn't. Worse, there's even less that will be available to offer our health profession. As far as giveaway, pre-election budgets are concerned, the voting public is no longer so gullible and knows that any tax cuts have to be balanced elsewher. They are more often over-compensated for by increasing taxes on everyday items, making them more expensive and making the vast majority of the population more out of pocket. Of course, assuming Labour wins this year, it will inherit a disaster of nuclear fallout proportions. Repairing that damage is not going to happen in a single term but the Tories will then be crowing from the opposition benches that "Labour is not working" again. Political memories are phenomenally short. It's all too easy to cherry-pick memories and ignore those that don't fit a narrative. Yes, it will be a struggle but don't criticise Labour for it. Remember that it was you, the Conservative Party, that created the mess Labour will be forced to fix.
I dont have a problem paying taxes, just with how their revenue is spent by government. I think taxing unearned like earned income/wealth is a good idea. Is that on the Labour policy agenda?
Rachel Reeves knows what she is talking about and she doesn’t miss a beat. Those side shots at the SNP were absolute gold. She should lead Labour, she exhibits more balls than Kier Starmer.
The man says he can't see how pensioners are going to be worse off, all I see is my private pension go down and my tax go up that should give him a clue, National insurance cuts don't help pensioners.
They would love to get rid of National Insurance. It then moves the NHS and welfare from something we pay for to a gift from the government and, therefore easy to abolish.
Do you get more than over your basic pension per year?If not you don't get enough pension to need to pay any. Otherwise get help from a hub or somewhere.
Maybe Ms Reeves might want to check her facts about the overall tax burden in Scotland. If you include Council Tax, the average household in Scotland pays hundreds of pounds less in tax than the average household in England. I probably should've prefaced this with the fact that I'm not an SNP supporter but, facts are facts.
I don't agree with all her policies, but my goodness she's looking strong. Of all the people in Parliament she seems to have some clue how to sort out the country's economic situation fairly. We should give her a chance.
The only people who would benefit from scrapping NI are the employers. We'd just pay more income tax so that the employer pockets the money. They're not going to pay it forward to the workforce are they, lets be real. Not to mention NI pays for the NHS so it'd just be mammoth step towards privatisation of healthcare even more than we're already seeing. Just another proposed tory cash grab to feather the nest of their big business party funding on the backs of working people. Im fed up with carrying rich people, about time they got off their bums and shared some of the burden and stop sponging off of the lowest paid, hardest working people in our society.
Rachel I was taught in portacabins under labour in the 6o,s, 70,s and eighties. It doesn’t matter. They were warm and clean and produced many lawyers, doctors engineers…..no problem
Where are they all? Benches were packed yesterday, hardly anyone there today. Have they already gone to spend more time with their families, or will we have to wait for the GE to see them gone?
The country expected the Tories to pull a rabbit out of the bag because they practically announced their plans days before the budget on the media rounds, so it sort of gave that impression that they had an ace up their sleeves that would win over their base (as a con of course, but that's not the point). Rather, they did sod all nothing, made their base unimpressed and unhappy, and the media has NOT commented on the fact that in the budget notes there is a line that states that there will be no financial review before the election which means this is supposed to be the final budget. Really? Is that all Hunt has? No giveaways to fool people into voting for them only for them to turn off those taps once they win? What am I thinking, of course they didn't because they have ACCEPTED they will not win, so now they don't care and will keep taking from the coffers.
Reform are just Tories in a different guise ie privileged publicly schooled millionaire/billionaires hedgefund managers property magnate's etc who will only ever look after their own ie wealthy people like them. What makes you think they would be a voice for working people? Reform state they want to shrink the state ie our public services, does anyone think that's sustainable? Mr Tice donated to the Tories, he's got Tory instincts they all have. Why do the very wealthy donate to the Tories? Easy, it makes them richer. They couldn't care less about working people....
You think anything will benefit the working classes from leadership by Smarmer and Reeves? Dream on; both establishment goons who can be guaranteed to preserve the status quo.
@@carolynwestlake7670 that's the point Labour will win because they are not the tories. We have no idea what their policies will be. They could twin us with Gaza, support Russia because they oppose the USA. And if Trump wins in America God help us all.

Let's reclaim the word United in front of kingdom.& The make the word Great in front of Britain be spoken with pride! As it once was !!!! When our. fore father's fought wars for our rights.! That the cons want us to loose.
I'd like to suggest you all, to join back in the European Union otherwise, Britain will break apart. First Northern Ireland then potentially Scotland will follow asking for going independent to join the European market. Indeed, in the medium to long term, Euro Euro-denominated clearing financial services will have to be moved almost completely into the Euro Zone. That means the City of London stands to see €1.0 Trillion Euro per day of derivatives clearing, rightly going to the Euro Zone for very important reasons as financial stability, monetary policy and investments that have to be managed within the Euro Area. very humble suggestion for you all to join back in Europe and end the self inflicting economic arm and self inflicted goods tariffs red tape of importing and exporting forms
That is already the consensus view in Britain, the view only glitched temporarily under the influence of Cambridge Analytica which is something _you & your country_ needs to be acutely aware of, especially as Steve Bannon is still touring Europe & he has the same boss, the Canadian Robert Mercer. You also need to be aware of the social attitude shift which happened under the same influence & isn't diminishing.

@@mpjkea2000 and this is just the tip of the iceberg. The price gouging on life saving meds over there is also out of control.
Excellent!
You can see why she is the most popular minister / shadow minister. She's not perfect, but she's much better than the tories.
She is still going for the disabled though if labour win ( with even harder policies) the same as Hunt!! Shame on them both!!
Yeah I mean the economic plan of grow the economy...somehow...is brilliant 😂
She looks, sounds and behaves like a tory. How is she in any way better? Ask a random member of the public-at least half will thin she's a tory.
She is stealing the chancellors policies. Red tory
The Conservatives are absolutely amazing and i love them. The gift that keeps on taking. What's mine is theirs, and what's theirs is theirs.
Bye, bye Hunt. Won’t be long till he’s ousted and on his way.
Excellent speech and so true. The conservatives dont even have the decency to be embarrassed about their track record
She didnt like being challenged! If i increase the state pension by £3000 but you have to be takes because you are £3000 over the tax limit by £1000, you are not worse off, was the question she couldnt answer. The SNP said that Gordon Brown is also responsible for borrowing more and handing the bill over to the tax payer and she didnt like that truthful fact. She is already dodging the questions yet not even in power........
Tories are corrupt.
the tax rise in scotland works out cheaper than the tax rise in the rest of the uk.
The tax policy in Scotland has merits as a more equitable outcome for more people especially for the with the least.
This is the next chancellor, go Rachel!
Boris and Sunak brought in the rise in Ni suposedly to fund and
"cure" social care. So does yesterday's budget mean that the tories have abandoned social care? 😢
That pledge was abandoned almost as soon as it was made. Only weeks after announcing it, the percentage that was to be allocated to the social care sector was re-allocated to the NHS for the next five years as the NHS was deemed to have the greater need.
Sunak either didn't understand or didn't care how underpaid and undervalued those working in social care already felt. Intially, that money, while promised, wouldn't be available for five years. That was bad enough but there was the hope that it's on its way. No it isn't. Worse, there's even less that will be available to offer our health profession.
As far as giveaway, pre-election budgets are concerned, the voting public is no longer so gullible and knows that any tax cuts have to be balanced elsewher. They are more often over-compensated for by increasing taxes on everyday items, making them more expensive and making the vast majority of the population more out of pocket.
Of course, assuming Labour wins this year, it will inherit a disaster of nuclear fallout proportions. Repairing that damage is not going to happen in a single term but the Tories will then be crowing from the opposition benches that "Labour is not working" again. Political memories are phenomenally short. It's all too easy to cherry-pick memories and ignore those that don't fit a narrative. Yes, it will be a struggle but don't criticise Labour for it. Remember that it was you, the Conservative Party, that created the mess Labour will be forced to fix.
Social care, in fact all welfare will be gone under the Tory's.
YES. Like everything else except the wealthy.
....you didn't actually think they'd give social care money did you?
@@stevemale9936abolish VAT tax wealth not work.
The Tories were making promises they knew they wouldn't have to keep
Don't let me down labour
😂😅
Don’t worry , they will
God damn, I love Rachel Reeves. She gets me interested in politics.
She knows how to clap back.
❤
She's terrible. I saw Iain Dales interview with her and she's vague and clueless
@@keithparker1346 We need evidence when serious allegations are made BUT we never get them - I wonder why???
We already paid taxes why should we pay again
It's easy to criticise when you are in the opposition.
I dont have a problem paying taxes, just with how their revenue is spent by government. I think taxing unearned like earned income/wealth is a good idea. Is that on the Labour policy agenda?
It's on the Green Party agenda & has been for years. If people want it they can vote for it & then go into detail with a Citizens Assembly.
Unearned income is taxed as are capital gains on the sale of assets.
No it's not. There's very little difference between the Tories and Labour.
@@jjefferyworboys8138nonsense
what IS on the Labour agenda is removing the cap o Bankers bonuses. A real commitment to ordinary people.
Rachel is so competent and pleasant. 😊
Trussenomics 2.0
She makes alot of sense.
We should be putting up n.i or income tax by 2 or 3 pence, not cutting them.
And Jeremy Hunt didn't even have the decency to be there.
Cause he knows he's going!😂🚶♂️➡️🚶
Need a general election soon.
It's the Liz Truss und Quasi Kwateng tax 'plan' reloaded. That went well didn't it?
She's very good at off the cuff comments
Cut their wages and subsidies'
Rachel Reeves knows what she is talking about and she doesn’t miss a beat. Those side shots at the SNP were absolute gold. She should lead Labour, she exhibits more balls than Kier Starmer.
What can you say? TORIES OUT NOW.
This person will be the UK PM soon I predict. She’s brilliant.
As both Gordon Brown and Sunak were Chancellor before becoming PM, that's entirely possible.
The women in Labour are a strong bunch. Different to the nodding dogs in the Tories who tell porkies at a drop of the hat.
Rachel sounds posh, authoritative and knowledgeable. Refreshing. Refreshing Rachel.
The man says he can't see how pensioners are going to be worse off, all I see is my private pension go down and my tax go up that should give him a clue, National insurance cuts don't help pensioners.
Scots get a lot more for their money... Council tax is frozen in Scotland while most councils in England announce rises of 20%+
I left the workplace in 2007 on £28.500 why is my very skilled 39 year old son earning £27.500? In 2024.
Well done Rachel Reeves
Get the tories out now they are lining their own pockets for years and are saying F-/ you
She hit the nail on the head there!
They would love to get rid of National Insurance. It then moves the NHS and welfare from something we pay for to a gift from the government and, therefore easy to abolish.
Omg. I’d not heard about pensioner tax! I can’t afford that
Do you get more than over your basic pension per year?If not you don't get enough pension to need to pay any. Otherwise get help from a hub or somewhere.
Jeremy the grinning magot hunt.
You mean weasel Jeremy weasel @unt
What about the 8 billion a day for the dinghy diver's
Imagine the SNP complaining with their taxation record
Maybe Ms Reeves might want to check her facts about the overall tax burden in Scotland. If you include Council Tax, the average household in Scotland pays hundreds of pounds less in tax than the average household in England. I probably should've prefaced this with the fact that I'm not an SNP supporter but, facts are facts.
It's easy to spout these things, but provide the EVIDENCE
The Tory Plan is working: grinding immiseration and worsening precariousness.
Excellent address Rachel
Why cant these unfair budgets be overturned
Behind the scenes this labour is very happy with tori’s policies
Record number of people running out of cash every month.😮😮😮
I don't agree with all her policies, but my goodness she's looking strong. Of all the people in Parliament she seems to have some clue how to sort out the country's economic situation fairly. We should give her a chance.
The idea of Rachel Reeves running a phone shop is scary. A whole economy!!!!? Help.
You have a lack of knowledge and insight look into her past record of employment the look at hunts then say that
Brilliant speech 🎉
I suppose he intends to do away with the NHS and old age pension
The only people who would benefit from scrapping NI are the employers. We'd just pay more income tax so that the employer pockets the money. They're not going to pay it forward to the workforce are they, lets be real. Not to mention NI pays for the NHS so it'd just be mammoth step towards privatisation of healthcare even more than we're already seeing. Just another proposed tory cash grab to feather the nest of their big business party funding on the backs of working people. Im fed up with carrying rich people, about time they got off their bums and shared some of the burden and stop sponging off of the lowest paid, hardest working people in our society.
Rachel I was taught in portacabins under labour in the 6o,s, 70,s and eighties. It doesn’t matter. They were warm and clean and produced many lawyers, doctors engineers…..no problem
I always liked those 'mobiles'. Much warmer than the draughty old buildings.
not Rachel Reeves who run away from constituents
She sounds great hope she can deliver!
This budget does nothing for pensioners and those on low income, once again money for high earners.
Yes...that,s right.
Where are they all? Benches were packed yesterday, hardly anyone there today. Have they already gone to spend more time with their families, or will we have to wait for the GE to see them gone?
I love it when Tucker is quoted in the House! "Omnishambles" 😂
Rachel for PM
Considering that both Gordon Brown and Sunak were Chancellor before becoming PM, that's a realistic prospect.
The country expected the Tories to pull a rabbit out of the bag because they practically announced their plans days before the budget on the media rounds, so it sort of gave that impression that they had an ace up their sleeves that would win over their base (as a con of course, but that's not the point).
Rather, they did sod all nothing, made their base unimpressed and unhappy, and the media has NOT commented on the fact that in the budget notes there is a line that states that there will be no financial review before the election which means this is supposed to be the final budget. Really? Is that all Hunt has? No giveaways to fool people into voting for them only for them to turn off those taps once they win? What am I thinking, of course they didn't because they have ACCEPTED they will not win, so now they don't care and will keep taking from the coffers.
Myself and my family are all voting Reform UK
Reform are just Tories in a different guise ie privileged publicly schooled millionaire/billionaires hedgefund managers property magnate's etc who will only ever look after their own ie wealthy people like them. What makes you think they would be a voice for working people? Reform state they want to shrink the state ie our public services, does anyone think that's sustainable? Mr Tice donated to the Tories, he's got Tory instincts they all have. Why do the very wealthy donate to the Tories? Easy, it makes them richer. They couldn't care less about working people....
“Vote for us. We will do the same but feel bad about it”
Well done you let's hope
the tories are like the boy who cried wolf! at this point even if they told the truth it would still be classed as lies, lies, lies.
"Tory Doom Loop" at 09,23", briljant!! I'm in love with her...
What the actual hell? Families are already on their knees, how can anyone be an extra £800 worse off? My God. GET THEM OUT!
From the thumbnail I thought Hunt and Reeves were sitting on the same side, nothing could look more natural
Where is Hunt hiding?
Bring on Rachel, bring on the General Election we have had enough of the Tory destruction of the working class!
You think anything will benefit the working classes from leadership by Smarmer and Reeves? Dream on; both establishment goons who can be guaranteed to preserve the status quo.
The question is what would Labour do??
We don't really know..
Tories pinch their ideas. You won't know till they set out their stall as they say nearer to the election.
We will once the election comes
@@carolynwestlake7670 that's the point Labour will win because they are not the tories.
We have no idea what their policies will be.
They could twin us with Gaza, support Russia because they oppose the USA.
And if Trump wins in America God help us all.
This is such a Wild thing to say sending how they have hefty manifest
It won't do any worse than what the tories are doing now🤢
Here's the truth.and nothing but the truth...Rachel well and truly spoken .a great delivery ....
Let's reclaim the word United in front of kingdom.& The make the word Great in front of Britain be spoken with pride! As it once was !!!! When our. fore father's fought wars for our rights.! That the cons want us to loose.
Why is she wearing a crash helmet at the Despatch Box? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'd like to suggest you all, to join back in the European Union otherwise, Britain will break apart. First Northern Ireland then potentially Scotland will follow asking for going independent to join the European market. Indeed, in the medium to long term, Euro Euro-denominated clearing financial services will have to be moved almost completely into the Euro Zone. That means the City of London stands to see €1.0 Trillion Euro per day of derivatives clearing, rightly going to the Euro Zone for very important reasons as financial stability, monetary policy and investments that have to be managed within the Euro Area.
very humble suggestion for you all to join back in Europe and end the self inflicting economic arm and self inflicted goods tariffs red tape of importing and exporting forms
That is already the consensus view in Britain, the view only glitched temporarily under the influence of Cambridge Analytica which is something _you & your country_ needs to be acutely aware of, especially as Steve Bannon is still touring Europe & he has the same boss, the Canadian Robert Mercer.
You also need to be aware of the social attitude shift which happened under the same influence & isn't diminishing.
According to radio 4 this morning, hunt told the 1922 comittee that the 2p drop was to entice the 50 and 60 year olds back to work!
😂
Labour are red , tories are blue and neither has never and will never give a fook about you
It rhymes and it's true 👍😉🇬🇧
