13:47Now PlayingChief 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.
