Stop the government selling off the NHS to private health care organisations!

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Theresa May has started putting together the team that will define the policies her government pursues.

And it’s terrifying. The top 5 ministers all have links to private healthcare firms desperate to dismantle our NHS.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Publicly own all NHS land and assets, and directly employ all NHS staff.
