    It isnt cutting services, it is making it paid for by those who can afford to do so, and thus freeing up more money for those who cant. Means testing brings equity in a way taxes dont.

    Also not fixing health is bad for the economy. I agree within a certain threshold but it would need to be a high threshold.

    You don’t need to cut services, just make them move efficient, as I said on the starmer thread about the changing light bulbs get rid of the many pen pushers that job aren't required just jobs for the boys. You just need the people DOING the actual front line job.

    there are a lot of consultants choking the money from reaching and supporting the front line. It needs to change pronto so that can improve. I also agree on the means testing- lots more folk can pay for their services and should, including me - I do anyway. But also, tax the super wealthy a bit more.
