6 Just imagine what could buy for that in a time of supposed austerity. My rough calculations suggest it would cover the salaries for all the nurses, all the consultants and all the GPs needed to serve the NHS for <strong>10</strong> years – and you would still have billions left over to train the next generation or two of surgeons, build 80 state of the art hospitals, and treat tens of thousands of cancer patients for a year. To put it more simply: it would cover the entire NHS budget for approximately two and a half years. We are constantly told that there is no money left; that we cannot afford the NHS as it is currently run, or to fund high quality public services. Yet there is plenty of money for the banks and for Private Finance Initiatives (PFI). And the UK Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) debt is four times the size of the budget deficit used to justify austerity. In other words, austerity is a political choice rather than a necessity. Innisfree, a small finance company based in the City of London, is one of the biggest players in the Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) market. One of Innisfree’s flagship projects is the largest NHS Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) scheme at St Bartholomew’s and the Royal London hospitals in London. This could have been publicly financed for around £1bn; instead, it will end up costing £7bn by the time repayments are complete in 2049. The difference of £6bn will go to PFI consortium Skanska Innisfree and partners. To put these figures into a more digestible format, Barts is paying over £2m a week in interest, which adds up to over £120m a year, before they see a single patient. Innisfree chief executive David Metter was paid £8.6m in 20<strong>10</strong>. It’s no surprise that a majority of NHS hospitals are now in deficit with Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) as a major factor. And you thought your mortgage was bad. Just imagine if they could spend that money on patient care. The majority shareholder in Innisfree is Coutts, the Queen’s bank. Coutts UK, in turn, is owned by RBS. RBS thus effectively has a controlling stake in hospitals, boosting its profits whilst simultaneously running public services into the ground. It is worth recalling that the combined bail-out and losses of RBS since the crash amount to £95 billion. This is almost equivalent to the NHS budget for a whole year, yet it is still extracting profit out of the NHS. SHEEP IN THE ROAD : NUMBER 13
£ HSBC also has a controlling stake in many Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) schemes, and even owns PFI hospitals outright. HSBC was caught red-handed laundering money for Mexican drug cartels, organisations linked to Al-Qaeda, Russian gangsters and sanctions busting. Yet HSBC is also profiting from the dismantling of healthcare. The Treasury building upgrade is a Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) scheme, and HMRC is renting offices from a company registered in an offshore tax haven thanks to a Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) scheme. You really couldn’t make this stuff up. In fact, publicprivate partnerships have even been exported globally including to Iraq and Libya. Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) has been such a roaring success that George Osborne was rolling out Private Finance Initiatives 2, the blockbuster sequel, before he got the chop. 7 Artwork: Thomas Nast Some smaller hospitals have already been able to buy their way out of Private Finance Initiatives (PFI), and there are multiple precedents for taking services back into public hands when the private sector fails. So it’s time for the Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) debt to be cancelled and the introduction of a future policy of financing public infrastructure directly. JULY & AUGUST 2016
