Point taken but don't say the NHS is unsustainable. It is perfectly sustainable and if we were to put the funds into it that most other developed countries do into their public health it would be even more of a world leader.

Arnold mentions his daughter's French experience (delighted she has recovered) so worth a few comparisons with France:

France spends $4118 per head compared with our $3405, - France 20% more.
France beats the UK on wait for elective surgery and - very importantly - on 'mortality amenable to healthcare' but the UK beats France on every one of the 20-odd other measures in the attached tables.
Nearly 4 times as many (11%) of French people than UK people (3%) think the healthcare system needs to be completely rebuilt.
