scotlad Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 To be honest, I'm surprised at Westminster allowing that level of responsibility to slide away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde1998 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) what albums that affe? anyway that should be familiar to millions around the rest of the country! Manchester: Population: ~500,000 NHS Budget: ~£6bn Per Capita: ~£12,000 Scotland: Population: ~5,300,000 NHS Budget: ~£12bn Per Capita: ~£2,250 Total Budget: ~£34bn Per Capita: ~£6,500 UK: Population: ~65,000,000 Total Budget: £732bn Per Capita: ~£11,000 Unless I've worked out something wrong or Manchester has grown in size suddenly... Why is Manchester getting so much money for their NHS? I'm not saying that they shouldn't have control of their NHS, but £12k per person!?

Pretty sure the Manchester area covered here is much bigger than 500,000 folks. Edited February 25, 2015 by perthTam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde1998 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Clyde. Sure channel 4 news reports 6 billion as covering greater Manchester population 2.4 million. That makes more sense then. I heard that it went to Manchester City Council. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
