What the petition asks
The previous debate for a vote of no confidence in Health Secretary the Right Hon Jeremy Hunt failed to even mention Mr Hunt, let alone discuss a vote of no confidence in him. I request that there be a debate for a vote of no confidence in Mr Hunt.
Jeremy Hunt has mismanaged the NHS, so we are left with an NHS where:
Most hospitals will be in deficit this year, centres of excellence are being rated by CQC as inadequate or in special measures, where junior doctors are threatened with pay cuts of 15-30% and being forced to leave the country to earn a decent wage and where G.P.s have had their pay eroded for 10 consecutive years.
