That wasn't data, but a comment on data. While they say "suggests that the UK actually spent above the EU-15 and OECD averages – as a percentage of GDP – in 2014." the link given for that merely talks about the effects the inclusion of social care costs have on the UK figures.
You didn't quote anything but just said untrue for the entire post. As such that covers any and all points I made.
However, it appears to be this you were saying is untrue as you exclude thepoint you mention above) "The UK spends less on healthcare as a percentage of GDP than many EU-15 and G7 countries but at the same time has higher metrics for results." That the UK may or may not spend above the OECD and EU-15 average as the article you linked stated does not make negate that, using latest OECD data, the UK spends less than Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, Norway, Canada, Japan, Sweden, Germany, France, Switzerland, United States.

Five of the G7 (6 excluding the UK = 83%) countries spend more than the UK.Seven of the EU-15 (14 excluding the UK = 50%) countries spend more than the UK. Please therefore point out what is 'untrue' with my "spends less than many EU-15 and G7 countries" point.

Nothing surprising about that then...

OK, my mistake. You did specify what you said was untrue.
Doesn't change the facts I covered in my reply, being higher than average does not negate the point that UK spending is less than many of the EU-14 and G7 countries. Those countries also spend higher than average but more higher than average than the UK does...

The facts in your reply didn't counter which part I said was untrue and the link I gave that backed it up.
We spend more than the eu-15 and OECD average on health as a percentage of GDP.

For some reason I am reminded of Gulliver's Travels.

Except the part you said was untrue (sic) is "The UK spends less on healthcare as a percentage of GDP than many EU-15 and G7 countries".Again being higher than average does not make untrue/false that UK spending is less than many of the EU-14 and G7 countries. Those countries also spend higher than average but even more higher than average than the UK does.
Average has nothing to do with it, it's a comparision of absolute amounts, not how high or low any are to average.
If you can't see that in the OECD chart I posted in #72 I'd suggest you go on a basic how to read charts course. Hint everything to the right of the chart is high and everything to the left is low. I nicely put the UK in red to make it obvious where it was in relation to the other countries.
The countries to the right of the UK i.e spending more than the UK I listed in #72
However I suspect you're trolling and/or just don't want to admit you got it wrong.

After the first 29 councils areas declared their results, the SNP had won 37.9% of the votes - up from the 29% it won in 2014. The Brexit Party is second on 14.5%, with the Liberal Democrats on 14% and the Conservatives on 11.5%. Scottish Labour was on 9.6% - down from 26% in 2014 - and the Greens 8.3%.
So that's over 60% of Scottish votes for remain parties. And 46.2% for independence parties.

BBC is projecting they will get 3 MEPs (out of 6).
