Liberal Democrats call for health spending in forthcoming budget
Speaking ahead of the budget, Liberal Democrat Scottish Affairs spokesperson Christine Jardine said:
All Rishi is doing is prolonging the agony for all of us.
Families are fed up picking up the tab for his economic mismanagement.
Conservatives have been bad for the economy and bad for the country’s health.
The Conservatives must put the NHS at the heart of the budget. It is no wonder the economy isn’t growing when millions of people are stuck on NHS waiting lists, unable to work.
More funding for the NHS in England means an increase in Barnett consequentials, which can then be spent on ensuring that patients can finally get access to their GP in Scotland.
Lifelong Conservative voters are rejecting Rishi Sunak’s Government just as long-term SNP voters are seeing that Humza Yousaf’s government has no plan for rescuing the NHS. They are out of touch and out of ideas about how to bring down waiting lists.
The only way out of this mess is a General Election to deliver the change this country desperately needs.
