Spending is one thing, but the UK just trains too few doctors [1], a consequence of Conservative policies and mismanagement. The Conservative efforts to centralize the NHS in London has also resulted in a system that doesn't scale and doesn't distribute resources efficiently.

I agree about both those, but its a bit odd to blame the Conservatives for something that labour did too: its pretty much consensus policy.

Labour (Blair and Brown) also weakened the NHS financially by running off-balance sheet debt.
