Although the concept of taxpayer financed public health services is a potent rhetorical tool, it’s not correct.

The UK government is a currency sovereign. It means that the government creates money by spending it. Necessarily taxes destroy money by paying them.

Privatization and austerity mean the government is spending money into the pockets of the super rich while neglecting spend on the nation itself. Working people are obligated to sacrifice their wealth.
