Moral Health

The ministerial expenses claimant in charge of running down the National Health Service has decided to offer personnel a slightly smaller real-terms wage cut than hitherto planned, according to various anonymoids. However, since comparatively few NHS personnel are Conservative Party donors, the chances of a raid on the magic money tree are remote. Instead, since better uses have evidently been found for the £350 million a week saved by leaving the EU, and since collecting taxes is against the national religion, the Government will fund its new offer by cutting the budget for services to patients. Thus the ungrateful health industry customers who supported money-grabbing strikers over hard-working ministers will soon find themselves fitly punished.
