What the petition asks
Please review the fundings of the NHS and prevent closures to departments and the staffing levels.
As current events show with the pandemic the NHS is facing it is clear that funding levels are poor.
Before the pandemic staffing levels were critical with many deaths that could have been avoided because of this.
The work the NHS staff do is not fairly reflected in their pay due to overworking directly due to the lack of funding to NHS departments and low staffing areas, this is without taking into account how the increment pay rises do not fairly reflect the increase to the cost of living.
