Jeremy Hunt, a Conservative Member of Parliament who serves as the United Kingdom’s Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, shot back at President Donald Trump for attacking his country’s health care system on Monday.

Responding to a tweet in which Trump said that the U.K.’s National Health Service is “going broke and not working,” the Tory MP pointed out that his country’s system is still better than the system in the United States, no matter what other flaws it might have.

“Not ONE [U.K. citizen] wants to live in a system where 28 million people have no cover,” Hunt wrote in response to Trump. “NHS may have challenges but I’m proud to be from the country that invented universal coverage — where all get care no matter the size of their bank balance.”
