What the petition asks

Much publicity has been given to the NHS state, capacity and funding. To ensure that the NHS is not gifted, sold or used as a political mechanism to further privatisation of the lands, equipment, resources and services presently in provision to the public at large.
The NHS funding has been restricted to the extent that there is a negative effect on the standards being achieved in patient care, service delivery, restrictions on critical care, the funding of treatments together with staff being in crisis and under valued. It is time to give the governing elected majority in party parliament a mandate to retain the NHS for the nation or dispose of the NHS by privatisation.
