Signing her name to a promise of more money for Britain's National Health Service Theresa May says an extra 20 billion pounds a year will be pumped into it by 2023. (SOUNDBITE) BRITISH PRIME MINISTER, THERESA MAY, SAYING: "More money is needed to keep pace with the growing pressures on the NHS, but it's not just a question on more money this year or next to meet this pressures and deliver the world class care that we all want and expect.

The NHS needs to be able to plan for the future wth ambition and confidence." As well easing strain on the system, it could help May too.

She's been under pressure in from the staunch Brexiteers in her own party, who want a hard exit from the European Union. (SOUNDBITE) BRITISH FOREIGN SECRETARY,BORIS JOHNSON, SAYING: "As the prime minister has rightly said it is a down payment on future reciepts that will come to this country, not this country, that will come to the UK as a result of discontinuing payments to brussels" Leave campaigners have long argued that Britain WILL have more cash to splash - as a result of leaving the EU.

This pledge allows May to tick off one of the key promises made during the referendum.

Though, some say the so called 'Brexit dividend" doesn't really exist. SOUNDBITE) CHIEF MARKET STRATEGIST AT WH IRELAND, MIKE INGRAM, SAYING: " extra money for the NHS probably speaks more to the febrile nature of Westminster politics than the burgeoning coffers of Her Majesty's Government.

Certainly the Institute of Fiscal Studies is very quick to lean back on the notion of any kind of Brexit dividend." None the less, improving public healthcare is an easy sell in any country - So what's the catch here? (SOUNDBITE) BRITISH PRIME MINISTER, THERESA MAY, SAYING: "As a country we will need to contribute a bit more - tax payers will need to contribute a bit more, but we will do that in a fair and balanced way and we want to listen to people about how we do that." But as May well knows - Listening to the people isn't nearly as hard as putting their ideas into action.
