Even though the government loves to blame ‘agency staff costs’ for many of the troubles in our NHS, Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt is still planning to sell NHS Professionals – by far the most cost-effective way for hospitals and other health organisations to obtain staff – to private buyers, who will then push costs up costs and wages down in order to make a profit.
This is bad for staff, bad for our economy – and very bad for the NHS – and it shows up the government’s ‘concern’ for us, our health and those who look after it for the charade it is.
We Own It collected huge numbers of signatures on a petition against the sell-off and Labour MP Justin Madders has asked the Audit Office to investigate. We Own It is asking everyone to raise awareness and build pressure by sharing this video calling for a public inquiry if the government will not abandon its ridiculous and damaging plan:

Keep our NHS out of the hands of the wealthy, and teh TORYS

Hey Skwarkbox,
Is it not time the Governor General robustly investigated the Conservative Party with the intention of serving justice on behalf of a Labour electorate, growing daily in number angered by self-serving greed, and sacking this miserable deceiving conniving prime minister and her pack of wolves before they gnaw their way through flesh to leave the bones of an NHS for the freeman.
Namaste

don’t sell NHS
We need a new shadow health secretary, a hard hitter. Jon Ashworth isn’t attacking Jeremy Hunt enough for my liking, too moderate.
