Chief
Executive of NHS England, Simon Stevens has said he "takes very
seriously" warnings of possible recession in the event of Brexit, and
that would be "very dangerous" for the health service. Speaking to
Andrew Marr, he said: "If the economy goes into a tailspin" just when
the NHS needs extra investment, it would be very damaging. He said it is
not his job to tell people how to vote, but it is right that he talks
about what the NHS needs, adding: "Anything that puts that at risk is of
deep concern." Mr Stevens rejected the idea that leaving the EU would
free up money that currently goes to Brussels and could instead be spent
in the NHS
