The Brexit NHS dividend starts paying

Today I got a text from the NHS my appointment was cancelled as there are no blood sample bottles left. This must be how they get the £350M per week https://uhs.nhs.uk/AboutTheTrust/Newsandpublications/Latestnews/2021/August/International-blood-bottle-shortage-all-non-essential-blood-tests-suspended.aspx

The shortage isn't due to lack of funds.

No, but it is due, at least in part, to Brexit related supply chain issues.

Becton Dickinson (BD) - which makes blood test vials for the NHS - is ramping up imports to try to alleviate serious shortages of test tubes ...
Like many other industries, the firm previously said that it was experiencing "continued transportation challenges" in addition to increased demand, which included port and transport capacity, air freight capacity and UK border challenges.

So nothing to do with the £350m, as I said.

for £350M per week they can build a new blood sample bottle factory every week
