Well, let me rephrase. NHS has for a long time been unable to spend money it considered necessary for a sufficient level of ongoing and preventative care.

At the tail end it certainly seems plausible, stories about lack of funds for hiring doctors, and visible queues at A&E have long been a staple of healthcare. What caused that tail-end lack of funds, I'm not sure.
