This is all going to be furiously disputed through the day, no question ..trying to get link to the full documents so you can have a proper look - important tho Corbyn doesn't provide evidence that ministers have agreed that health service shoudl be part of a trade deal with US
Details of discussions about the demands of US pharma will be motivating for Labour voters worried about NHS tho - 'not for sale' has been biggest mantra at Labour events even tho always furiously denied by Tories
Clear that US drug firms want access to UK markets - Labour suggests UK has agreed they could extend patents of some medicines which would could cost NHS more
Big political question about whether any UK govt would ever do a deal that made medicines much more expensive for the NHS, and therefore the taxpayer - would be massively costsly for the govt and likley deeply unpopular
