The UK really is licking Trumps boots.
Not really. The pharmaceutical company is jacking up the prices because trump is insisting it, don’t know why they don’t tell him to do one really. It’s got nothing to do with the UK government. For once something stupid is happening and it isn’t the government’s fault.
It’s been suggested that the reason Palestine Action was banned was because they vandalised one of Trump’s golf courses in March.
I’m not even sure that’s his boots.
In that case, the NHS (assuming they don’t have a separate agreement) will have to reduce the amount of it they dispense.
Our health spending is pretty much capped each year: If the price of a drug rises, then the impact/£ ratio will eventually shift that money towards treating something else.It’s a change to private providers, not the NHS cost. The NHS cost has already been agreed (not sure for how many years though).
NHS have their own agreement with the company they don’t buy retail so it doesn’t really matter what trump thinks. They have a contract in place and the pharmaceutical company can’t change the contract halfway through. I don’t know how long the contracts for though.
