I think the neoliberal plan is to make the NHS so overworked and underfunded that people stop supporting it, then push private healthcare as the solution and scrap the NHS for a model similar to the US's. Then they can claim that this privatisation is boosting the economy by manipulating data when in actuality all it is doing is giving the rich more wealth from the poor.
