Privatisation is creeping in. And some UK politicians want to copy a US-style insurance system that would turn healthcare into a privilege — not a right. Meanwhile, influencers are selling “biohacks” and wellness products as solutions with little evidence and shifting responsibility for health from a universal human right to a personal choice. And tech billionaires are pouring millions into AI “life extension” research for the few ,while the majority are dying younger. In this eye-opening episode of The Tea, Britain's favourite doctor, Dr Amir Khan exposes the truth about what’s really driving the decline in health — and why the real crisis is political. Without addressing systemic issues like poverty, housing, pollution, and social care, no AI can extend our lives. We also unpack: ⚡ NHS privatisation is coming — and fast ⚡ Insurance-based healthcare is a two-tier system ⚡ Physician associates won’t fix GP staff shortages ⚡ AI con’t double life expectancy by 2030 ⚡ AI therapy is a cheap substitute for real care ⚡ Why doctors standing with Palestine are being silenced ⚡ Your medical records shouldn’t be AI training data As Dr Khan puts it: “If your priority isn't your community's well-being, if your priorities aren't how well we look after our most vulnerable people, you have your priorities wrong.” #MyriamFrancois #AmirKhan #NHS #AI #mentalhealth #socialmedia #wellnessindustry #Palantir #UsPolitics #UKPolitics #Davos2026 AUDIO CREDITS Presenter–Producer: Dr. Myriam François Guest: Amir Khan Senior Producer: Sara Farolfi Producer: Nadège Bizimungu Assistant Producer: Poppy Jacobs Research: Dahlia Melaine & Maryam Abada Video Editor: Max Bubnov An MPWR Productions show. 👉 Subscribe for fearless, independent conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@UCT4kJCZyg26egbPAuJVj2kA 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts. 🎥 Click to watch.
