YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIain Dale challenged the author of a report claiming that life expectancy in the UK is falling because of the government's austerity programme.
Sir Michael Marmot's report said that it was highly likely that funding cuts contributed to the reduction in life expectancy.
But Iain pointed out that the same patterns have been seen across Europe, meaning that austerity may not be the reason behind it.
And that suggestion clearly irked Sir Michael.
