So this is bollocks then cause real terms includes corrections for inflationMan. My hangover is *minging*.
@Moriath - take your £1 in 2010 is £1.27 now (which is not exactly how to describe it - but does show you need 27 pence per 2010 pound more to *stay even*) - and apply that to your shitty graph.
Oh yeah. Looks different doesn't it!

Why cant you see its inflation adjusted graph. Real terms dude.Jesus. Did anyone bother to do the actual maths rather than just pull random graphs off websites, which by the way shows the NHS England budget only and is NOT inflation adjusted? If you get the actual Health budget figures and the actual year by year inflation rates, the Health budget increase has been below inflation for five of the last nine years and above for four, which is actually important given the way budgets actually work. In addition that budget rise over the last decade takes no account of the fact that the UK population has increased by 7% over that time and worse, the population over 65 has gone from 21 to 25%. All this data is ONS and if you bother to do some basic maths it shows a. how fucked the NHS is, and b. how fucked the UK is. This isn't politics, its demographics.
So if you don't won't to start euthanasing everyone over 65 (and frankly since 2016 I'd be sorely fucking tempted) you're going to need to spend a lot more on the NHS. And just to be clear, UK isn't in the top tier of public healthcare spending; 7.2% of GDP is well below several other EU countries, and is a smaller percentage of GDP than the UK was spending in 2010 (7.65%).
More, its old white peoples fault again from the Guard.

yes we have increased population and over 65s are more. The nhs can always use more money. What @Scouse was saying was the money went down over the last 15 years. And it demonstrably didnt go down. In real terms. It didnt go up as much as everyone would have liked. But its a period of austerity, correcting the spending after the 2008 banking crisis etc. So everywhere has had to make savings. And I am sure theres some wastage in the nhs that could be better used.
scotland and wales have their own budgets and spend on their parts of the nhs.
As you know i think capitalism is broken. So i agree with you. But while we are using that model then we have to be bound by its rules. Which unfortunately means the few are isolated from its ups and downs.A period of austerity.
'correcting the spending'
Hahaha...
The problem is that we have boom and bust capitalism, but the difference is that we're allowing the super rich to have their own boom whilst the rest of us are still bust, so people think having a chronically underfunded NHS is justified because they're poor too.

whats your solution comrade?
Its not as broken as socialism. See how that worked put in the ussr.To address the problem that you've acknowledged, rather than just sitting back and saying 'nah i'm alright m8.'
You say it's broken, but you're voting for it.

Ok so its not cancelled then. If it doesnt happen by 2024 then you can say they broke the promise.
Its the 25th and Corbyn is still in charge of the Labour party.

The company i am a director of pay our staff the living wage. It helps a lot of people.My god.
The national living wage is what the minimum wage should be.
The national living wage is an absolute joke; 'in order to live decently you need to earn this much, but we're going to let companies pay you lots less!'
If you think it's a good idea, you're a moron.
Its like applauding the government for saying 'the NHS is chronically underfunded, we acknowledge that, but we're not going to give it anymore money'.
