Repeal the Health and Social Care Act that puts profits before patients.

What the petition asks

In 2012 the Health and Social Care Bill was passed that drastically changed the way in which the NHS is structured. It was the latest in a series of changes which allow private interests to shape the NHS. We are no longer prepared to accept this. We are not a generation of bystanders. Stand with us.
Junior doctors have become engaged in politics like never before and are standing up for what we believe in:

We believe there is a better way than privatisation.The public sector pay freeze has gone on long enough. There are alternatives worth discussing.

We want our NHS put back into the hands of those who put patient care first, not profit.

Stand With Us For Our NHS So When YOU Need It We Can Stand For You
