The NHS has been pushed to the brink. Nobody is pretending that the NHS has not been affected by 18 months of Covid. But let’s not pretend – before Covid – the NHS was not affected by a decade of Conservatives. We entered the pandemic with the longest financial squeeze in NHS history, 17,000 beds closed, hospitals collapsed, public health services slashed, GP numbers plummeted, services privatized, nurses training cut, children’s mental health budgets blitzed, thousands waited longer for cancer treatment, and no The 18-week goal was met for five years, and the A&E goal was not met for six years.
So the NHS is in crisis not just because of Covid. The NHS is in crisis because of the Conservatives. And it has the devastating consequences of forcing more and more people in pain and desperation to take out loans and crowdfunding online to pay for an operation because the waiting is too much.
£12,000 for a hip replacement. £9,000 for a knee replacement. £3,000 for a hernia.
Two-tier health system, privatization from the back door. This is the Tory threat to the NHS. That’s why we’re fighting, to rebuild our NHS.
