Oh wait...
"The US will want business access to the NHS in any post-Brexit trade deal, the US ambassador has said, prompting anger from politicians and campaigners before Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK this week.
Woody Johnson, who is a close friend of the US president, said every area of the UK economy would be up for discussion when the two sides brokered a trade deal.
Asked if the NHS was likely to form part of trade negotiations, Johnson told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show: “I think the entire economy, in a trade deal, all things that are traded would be on the table.” Asked if that specifically meant healthcare, he said: “I would think so.”"
US wants access to NHS in post-Brexit deal, says Trump ally | Politics | The Guardian
It's actually perfect 2nd half of the Tory Scum Brexit plan:
1. Tariffs to increase indirect taxation, under the guise of WTO
2. Break up NHS and save cut tax spending - obviously keep "National Insurance", possibly rolled into new income tax bands
3. PROFIT!
This will make Britain best country in the world for the wealthy and the healthy!
