A £30 BILLION cut in health and social care spending buried in Rishi Sunak’s bosses’ Budget was condemned today by unions, MPs and campaigners.
As the Chancellor’s written report revealed the planned slashing of day-to-day spending from £199.2 billion to £169.1bn from April, shadow chancellor Annelise Dodds said the Budget was “unravelling fast.”
If ministers fail to commit more funding for the health service, NHS England funding will fall from £147.7bn to £139.1bn from next year.
