End private involvement: fund the NHS to succeed

Keep Our NHS Public (KONP), our national organisation, has sent a message to the Shadow Front Bench: recognise that there is no spare capacity in the private sector that does not further undermine the NHS.

Tony O’Sullivan, a retired NHS consultant paediatrician and Co-Chair of KONP, has outlined our vision for the NHS in this article.

We say fund the NHS: a commitment to funding, restoring and expanding the NHS, alongside investment in social care and education, would strengthen our economy and re-establish our country as one of the best health care providers in the world. Failure to do so will let the population down. It will hasten further undermining of the NHS model, perhaps beyond repair. Failure to do so would be a betrayal of LP Conference policy. It would be aiding and abetting the demise of the NHS as a public service. We will not accept that.
