Debate the NHS Reinstatement Bill fully with all MPs present.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

The NHS in England is being dismantled. NHS services - including acute and emergency, children’s, elderly and maternity care - have been deliberately underfunded since 2010. The comprehensive care we’ve come to expect continues to be cut back. Stop destroying our most precious resource.
Many services have been handed to private companies, which cost the NHS & tax payer far more than when provided by our publicly owned and publicly run NHS. Public health systems don’t seek profits, and don’t pay dividends to shareholders.

Stop the privatisation.

The NHS Bill will reinstate the NHS as a proper public service - which WE (the public) WANT.
