16. Investing In The UK's Infrastructure
Today at Prime Minister's Questions Boris Johnson claimed his government will invest £100 billion in infrastructure improvements including £34 billion more in the NHS and £14 billion more in schools. He was lying. The money going to schools isn't "more" money but investment previously announced in August 2019 and the £34bn for the NHS was first promised in 2018 and once inflation is taken into account the figure is closer to £20bn.
