    What you think is irrelevant.
    Demographic analysis shows the Brexit demographic as a whole as being (1) older and (2) more poorly educated.
    What do you think Brexiters will do to the individual/party who cuts NHS spending in half?
    It's not politically doable and you know it.
    Cutting NHS spending in half is Brexit pie-in-the sky bollux.
    I've not heard any politician or public brexit figure suggest it, ATW asked how the NHS would be funded, I gave him my answer

    "older and more poorly educated"

    and then you wonder why people who don't feel they have a lot to lose stick their fingers up at a system that demeans and condescends them at any given opportunity

        Actually what I wonder is what happened to education standards so that people can't seem to parse and analyse data
        Long may it continue though, it's why people who can earn the big bucks, no doubt.

          Problem is that cretins think that it's the immigrants who use most of NHS resources - in 20 years in UK I've used GP few times, about 1 hour worth of in total, plus once use A&E for injection (after squirrel bitten me ) - regretted going to A&E for years as I felt not well after it, or maybe it was the bite...

            Was it the suirrel bite that gave you the infection that required the lobotomy?

              Depends how much you cut and it would only work for specific taxes, say cutting fuel duty by half won't double the take.

              The budget in UK is increasingly dependent on "high earners", jobs for whom will start disappearing before and especially after Tory No Deal Brexit.

                    Yes cutting the budget in half would effectively mean he'd abolish it.
                    Another simplistic solution from the mind of a Brexiter.
                    I dunno why I bother really.
                    It's clear the country is fooked since the only people leaving post Brexit will likely be the highly skilled and educated (indigenous AND foreign), leaving behind the cretinati (indigenous AND foreign) to wreck the country further.
                    Hard Brexit now!

                      Every year over 200,000 workers retire and are not replaced by the local population if you stopped immigration you'd have a massive problem.

                      This very fact means however much people will bawl about immigration, it will continue at current levels, because Britain can't afford a declining working population whilst the retired population expands. Simple arithmetic, the self-entitlement of ageing leave voters demanding services and their pensions, and the laws of finance will scupper any plans to reduce immigration.

                      The number of births is actually lower than in the 1960's in spite of migrants "breeding like rabbits".
