Ed Miliband has been forced on to the defensive over the NHS after he was accused by David Cameron of telling the BBC he would seek to “weaponise” the health service for political purposes during the general election campaign.
Labour, which has placed intense pressure on the government in recent days over what one Cabinet Office minister described as a crisis in the NHS, declined to deny that Miliband had likened his tactics to a military campaign.
The prime minister accused Miliband of making a “disgusting” claim to the BBC’s political editor, Nick Robinson, that he would seek to weaponise the NHS. Weaponising describes the process in which a missile is armed with an explosive warhead.
