Against a motion blaming the current government for inequality in health outcomes. The vote itself is a minor and uninteresting bit of political theater; all the actual substance is in the debate. It's also worth noting that this isn't simply about access to healthcare - as several MPs from both sides of the aisle point out, it's about broader social and economic issues and their impact on people's health. That seems like something to bear in mind when considering how much economic damage is worth it to try and stop this coronavirus.
