UK’s NHS winter crisis
Theresa May has insisted the NHS is “better prepared for the winter than ever before”, despite the cancellation of tens of thousands of operations.
The prime minister said on Wednesday afternoon the health service had received “extra funding” to deal with the expected winter crisis. But Labour said May had shown herself to be “entirely out of touch” and accused her of “burying her head in the sand”.
May’s comments came as Jeremy Hunt apologized to patients who had seen their operations cancelled or delayed and admitted the NHS needed “substantially more resources” to cope with the “huge pressures” it faced.
