What the petition asks
During his time as Health Secretary, Mr Hunt has slashed funding, alienated Medical Professionals, asked them to work to unachievable targets, allowed private patient information to be "misplaced" by a private contrator & used state money to cover this up. He refuses to be held accountable.
