1) "The Tories are not willing to spend as much on the NHS as other countries do. It is a political choice.”.
Nobody was arguing about the spend levels. However, was this different when Labour were in power? Is it only the Tories ?
2) "The Tories would like the NHS to become an insurance based scheme (like in the USA). Prior to becoming the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt co-authored a policy pamphlet authored by a group of Tory MPs that called for the NHS to be replaced by an insurance system."
By "The Tories" I believe you mean "Jeremy Hunt"? You might be right, but this link only refers to Hunt. It also says nothing about the USA at all. It can just as easily be talking about a European style system.
3) “The Tories also receive political funding from private health companies and insurance companies, and Tories have investments in those companies.”
Well actually, it's not only the Tories....

I don't see any links for any of the other claims. Now, I am a staunch Labour snowflake, but I do believe in substantiating such statements (or at least making it clear that it is purely subjective opinion).
