The video patient-GP consultations by the year 2021 sounds adventuresomeGP services are set for their biggest overhaul in more than 15 years under plans to be confirmed by NHS England.
Under the new five-year contract, more than 20,000 staff will be funded to help GP practices work together as part of a local primary care network, NHS England said. It is hoped the recruits – including pharmacists, physios, paramedics, physician associates and social prescribing support workers – will help free up GPs for patients who need them most.
NHS England’s chief executive, Simon Stevens, said the deal was the first major pillar in implementing the NHS long-term plan, which was published three weeks ago.

This is completely as expected and perfectly reasonable. Much of this money is related to past spending and future commitments based on past membership such as pensions. It has nothing to do with negotiations over our future relationship as some leave proponents have been trying to insinuate in order to convince the public we should only pay if we conclude a WA. All of this suggests a deliberate "no deal" exit against a backdrop of pretending the EU is the "bad guy". Emergency American aid in the event of "no deal" and a fast tracked trade agreement leading to our country being flooded with cheap American products is probably well advanced in it's preparations, while May and co ponce around pretending they're still trying to get a deal. I still feel the opposition's best bet is to call their bluff and vote for the WA. The country will sigh a huge sigh of relief and the Bannon backed "no deal" EU wreckers like Boris Johnson and Rees-Mogg will explode in frustration. Labour can then stop agonising over trying to remain or not and spend the transition trying to bring down a deeply divided government, while pushing the benefits of free movement of people and the single market and the negatives of "going it alone" in a world dominated by a handful of large global players who would eat us for breakfast.PaulfromYorkshire wrote:Telegraph Politics

David Cameron, on the present EU Budget 11 February 2013. It is the balance of our contribution to this which is, to a very large extent, what we are now required to pay.But this deal does deliver important progress. Working with allies, we took real steps towards reform in the European Union. It is a good deal for Britain. A good deal for Europe. And above all a good deal for all our taxpayers. That is what we have delivered. And I commend this statement to the House.

If even an invisible Irish border is unacceptable to the EU, another option is available: a customs territory comprising the UK and Ireland. The Republic could remain in the EU but leave its customs union, agreeing instead a common commercial policy including matching tariffs with the UK.

So now we're proposing completely bespoke, novel relationships with the EU - for other people's countries, who don't even want to leave the EU?!!!!
