#UK not even spending #eu average on health/capita
1 #austria €5421
12 #UK €3154

We should commit to higher spending/capita
a society w an unhealthy population is a liability not an asset

UK govt expenditure is under 50% of gdp
We can spend more & still not "ruin" the economy https://ifs.org.uk/taxlab/taxlab-key-questions/what-does-government-spend-money

Protecting the nation is the core objective of govt, Not protecting national health is failing that goal

Healthy is a right, not a privilege
