After a successful launch and engaged discussion in Parliament this afternoon with a cross-party group of MPs and Peers, hosted by Richard Burgon MP, our hard-hitting new report is now available.

I really believe in the NHS. I think it’s the best thing we have ever done, and needs protecting at all costs. I personally have a lot to be thankful for.
As a supporter of Every Doctor, can I ask that the report is sent to every MP?
And that a 3-4 page résumé is sent to any ED members in constituencies where their MP has taken private monies from the sector – to include Streeting and Starmer? That will provide impeccable ammunition for the coming fight.
Great work 99% and well spotted Ju!
I will believe we have the faintest chance of the good sense in this report being implemented when the report is covered in The Daily Mail – in other words, sadly, – never!
Well done to all involved.
I would like to see the Leaders of the Labour Party, Liberal Democrat’s and Green parties referencing this report in the period before the next General Election.
Sadly we need not involve the Conservative Party for obvious reasons based on their 13 year campaign to date.
Please hold on to your NHS and its founding ideals and aspirations! Those of us in the US who know it know that it is a beacon to us and that we are a flashing warning to you. Keep up the fight. I hope you can hear me across the pond.
The reason our NHS IS IN CRISIS is mainly due to those who go out of their way to disrupt it so that PIRATE COMPANIES /TRUST FUNDS CAN MAKE MASSIVE PROFITS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE GENERAL POPULATION /DO NOT EXPECT TO HEAR THAT FROM ANY OF OUR INFO SOURCES BUT YOU WILL HEAR EVERY OTHER SO CALLED REASON
I’m sure you’ve already seen the BMJ response to the workforce “plan”, but just in case, https://www.bmj.com/content/382/bmj.p1542
Excellent report with clear cause and effects of funding disparities. We need the public to be made aware of this so they have knowledge when they are bombarded with the far right narrative of the NHS has more than enough funding.
How can we do this? How can this report and it’s contents be shown in a way that is most impactive?
I saw a comment which said send report to all MPs which is good but we also need to take back the narrative more fundamentally re funding in terms of the public. This report makes it very easy to understand. I don’t have the answer but feel we need to think more about wresting that narrative more.
I was Born into the NHS in 1951 & have always had First Class Service from several Hospitals in our area. We need to fight to keep & Improve our NHS: its one of this Country’s stand out Achievements of the last 75 Years.
