What is the relationship between Brexit and biomedicine? Here we investigate the Vote Leave official campaign slogan ‘We send the EU £350 million a week. Let’s fund our NHS instead’ in order to shed new light on the nationalist stakes of Brexit. We argue that the Brexit referendum campaign must be situated within biomedical policy and practice in Britain. We propose a re-thinking of Brexit through a cultural politics of heredity to capture how biomedicine is structured around genetic understandings of ancestry and health, along with the forms of racial inheritance that structure the state and its welfare system. We explore this in three domains: the NHS and health tourism, data sharing policies between the NHS and the Home Office, and the NHS as an imperially resourced public service. Looking beyond the Brexit referendum campaign, we argue for renewed sociological attention to the relationships between racism, biology, health and inheritance in British society.

英国脱欧作为遗传还原：英国的帝国主义、生物医学和 NHS

英国脱欧与生物医学有什么关系？在这里，我们调查了投票假官方竞选口号“我们每周向欧盟发送 3.5 亿英镑”。让我们为我们的 NHS 提供资金，以便对英国退欧的民族主义利益有新的认识。我们认为，英国脱欧公投运动必须属于英国的生物医学政策和实践。我们建议通过遗传的文化政治重新思考英国退欧，以捕捉生物医学是如何围绕对祖先和健康的遗传理解以及构成国家及其福利体系的种族遗传形式构建的。我们在三个领域对此进行了探索：NHS 和健康旅游、NHS 和内政部之间的数据共享政策，以及 NHS 作为帝国资源公共服务。超越英国脱欧公投运动，
