Right targets

The idea that the wealthy should pay for NhS treatment has been put forward.

They already do — it’s called National Insurance.

The group using NhS services the most is the group that doesn’t, or rarely, pays NI — those who abuse substances, eat junk food and don’t take exercise.

If we need to target groups, we should focus on getting people back to work.
