Stop the NHS White Paper that promises further privatisation

It is imperative that this bill is withdrawn. It is far too damaging for our precious NHS. Profit must never be put before people. The NHS must be the sole provider of services. Services must not be sub-contracted to the private sector and private companies must not be allowed to sit on decision making bodies/boards that decide on how NHS money is spent.

It is shameful that the government is privatising the NHS by stealth in the hope that the public will not notice. We will I promise that !!!

No one ever voted to privatise the NHS. It has been done by stealth and deceit. Back door policy restructuring the NHS. The Health and Social Care Act abolished the health secretary’s responsibility for Duty of Care under Jeremy Hunt. This was handed over to new Clinical Commissioning Groups ( CCGs) to buy in, ‘commission’ private companies hidden behind under NHS logos, thus deceiving the public since 2012. Diverting and preventing care. Frustrating patients, delaying or even preventing care. it’s using the pandemic to move at speed under cover bringing in more American companies, hoping for a aiming to create a profit making health system. Promoting private insurance to jump NHS queues, they have created through lack of funding which was diverted into the private companies away from the NHS itself. The NHS was told to make savings of £22bn. Interesting that the private, publicly funded ‘’Test and Trace’’ bill came to £22bn before lockdown.

This must not be allowed to happen

Tories want their old bad days where people died due to lack of medicines or Doctors' fee. it was Labour Party who established NHS. Hail to Labour Party.

We cannot afford for this to happen.

It would be indefensible to sell off parts of our precious NHS. Our Health Service is admired throughout the world and deserves adequate funding from the public purse. Only the Tories would think to privatise. Make no mistake - this would be to line the pockets of already wealthy Tory friends and NOT to improve the quality of services provided. Private health facilities, if you remember, did nowhere NEAR as good a job helping Covid patients through this pandemic!!

Please stop this handover of the NHS to po private companies. I have personal experience if how this works in other countries, and It Is Not Good for the health of a nation.

NHS created by Labour

Destroyed by the Tories?

Does the current government want this legacy

I will restrain myself & try not to use offensive language, but this government is hell bent on privatising everything. This meaning that their mates in business will ensure that they are suitably rewarded when their parliamentary days are over. I am 78 years old & have seen some corrupt & imbecilic governments but this gang of charlatans beats them all.

Our NHS never up for sale shame on you!

This is dangerous and must be stopped. We are proud of the NHS and it must remain ours.

This Bill is a disgrace! Privatisation of the NHS MUST be stopped. This government is seeking to allow private companies and their shareholders to profit from peoples misfortune and illness, especially the less well -off, through no fault of their own. Now, reports are being seen of G.P practices being sold off to a possibly dodgy AMERICAN insurance company. Locally, a private company is trying to slide in to profit from A&E,s "urgent cases" This has got to stop NOW, and the government has to take on board the complete funding of the NHS. It was not voted into power for this shameful behaviour. If taxes need to rise to provide a fully -funded NHS, so be it!

our taxes pay for the NHS and we should have a say in whether it is privitised

Stop this Bill.

The National Health Service is world reknown as a publicly funded healthcare system, free at point of access. This is the fairest way to administer healthcare, making sure that all who need medical care can access it regardless of their personal finances or status. Privitatisation is neither "fair" nor efficient, as it focuses on the need to make profit for shareholders rather than provide a rounded accessible healthcare service for all.

The late Professor Stephen Hawking told the Royal Society of Medicine “International comparisons indicate that the most efficient way to provide good healthcare is for services to be publicly funded and publicly run.” He warned against taking the NHS “towards a US-style insurance system, run by... private companies”, and "the establishment of a two-tier service.” I agree. The NHS must not be privatised. It's "our" NHS.

Please stop this white paper bill it's too dangerous it needs to be withdrawn; immediate action required.

I have worked as an nhs nurse for 46 years.Colleagues whom I have known who have gone to work as nurses in the private sector are all wanting to return to the nhs.The nhs provides far better patient care, investment in training and governance of staff . We pay for the nhs through tax and national insurance.Health care is a basic human right not a vehicle for profit greedy private companies

We cannot go back to the way things were before the NHS, where if you couldn't pay to see a doctor you couldn't see one. Where if you couldn't pay for treatment you couldn't get any. We cannot go back to the time where people died because they were poor to pay for medical help. The NHS was created so that EVERYONE rich or poor could have the treatment and medical care they needed. We pay for the NHS through our National Insurance payments, this is so we can ALL access it when needed., it's not up for sale, it's a public service and should not be sold for profit. We don't want big profit making companies getting their hands on the NHS, we don't want these companies dumping surgeries and medical facilities because they aren't making big money for them and leaving thousands of people without the medical care they need.

Every attempt to try to secretly privatise the NHS should be stopped. Having the NHS has crucial in getting us through the pandemic and still plays an important role.

The Tories are good at saying the right words but there is no truth or sincerity in them.

If you truly value the NHS do the decent thing and stop this treachery. The wrath of our nation will be felt by you at elections now and in future

Private companies have proved to be expensive and inadequate. They are a drain on the finances of the NHS at the expense of the care patients are supposed to receive.

The example of what has been happening during the pandemic shows that a properly reinstated publicly run NHS is essential. Nothing less!

Hands off our NHS! We the public have paid National Insurance Contributions all of our working lives to help pay for the NHS!

Please stop this white paper.All NHS should be under public ownership.

Stop this now Another way for ordinary people being made to suffer for profit

Betrayal by the Tories again. How dare they sell off "our NHS" it's the envy of the world as a health service. It's always selfish and greedy Tories that want to destroy things that are so so Good!

The NHS is the publics NHS and no-one else's it must, will and should stay that way.....NOW

Thus change will leave unaccountable private companies in charge of vulnerable patients. The NHS has proven it is capable with the proper funding to manage care. The vaccination programme is an excellent example. The Serco private company's handling of track and trace is a perfect example of the unaccountable and lack of private care. Both are paid for from our tax. I know which one to trust that is THE NHS

.FUND IT NOW NO MORE PRIVATISATION.

This is the NHS that I have paid into for fifty years and it is not yours to sell. We do not want an American styled health service so keep it public for everyone!!! What about your promise when you wanted Brexit so do not renege on that%!!!

Privatisation goes against all that the NHS is about. It is dangerous and must be withdrawn immediately.

Stop selling off the precious resources of this country. The NHS took 72 years to build and so little time to destroy. Think about the future people of this country , instead of your friends pockets

Stop the profit motive in healthcare, then you can have some trust that when you are ill and vulnerable, hopefully you are being given the best advice-look are what happened with oxycontin in America!!.

Privatisation of any part of the NHS without a mandare would be a betrayal of the british people & remembered come election time

I am sickened by the cronyism shown during the pandemic. It has cost the NHS dearly. For goodness sake stop this government making even more of the NHS an easy catch-penny for their fat cat friends and funders.

Stop this NOW, action required to cancel any American companies taking over our doctors surgeries

I used to work in the NHS as a domestic now retired.its not for sale to anyone .say no to privatisation .

The Govt. has no right to sell OUR nhs! We pay for it with our taxes. It`s free for us but won`t be if the govt. sell it off.

I want a public health system that is public, without private involvement, and is for the people of this country. In addition, I don't want the health system to be sold off to shareholders who do not live in this country.

No, no, no, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Not acceptable at all to the british publice and not needed

We own it. We pay for it. I thought the Conservative party said they would not sell the NHS, so what’s this all about. It’s crooked just like selling the railways the gas and everything else they can make money from. They are a corrupt government. Do not stand by and let this happen.

All services should be public because that is the meaning of public service.Not Privet to make profits for investors.

Government privatisations and contracting services to the private sector have generally been an abject failure. This must not happen with our wonderful NHS.

These plans to privatise the NHS by stealth, must be stopped!

The NHS is the very best thing about the UK and must be protected.

I will never vote for any party that undermines the NHS.

No to privatization of the NHS, no to the white paper bill!

Not the smallest part of the NHS should ever be privatised. Any parts that have been privatised should be re-nationalised.

Stop Privitatisation of N H S.why should we give part of our N H S away and have to pay more to keep our Free service to businesses..we already have knowledge and experience of what VIRGIN has NOT Achieved as a so called PARTNER. Will someone please report what VIRGIN has done to improve Services and how they have treated NHS. Staff...

The NHS was set up as an orgsnisation owned by the people NOT THE TORY Party. You have no right to privatise services, giving contracts to Tory cronys to make fat profits from people's ill health. The Tory philosophy that private sector is better and more efficient and effective than the public sector was never accepted by those who know better. THe COVID pandemic has exploded this myth of private best. Giving contracts to Tory ministers friends and allies is just what this bill intends to introduce on a wider scale. This bill puportedly to repeal the disasterous 2012 Act in fact will allow private companies to be given contracts rather than go through an expensive qnd flawed tenering process. MAke no mistake thios bill is merely the lastest Tory plot to destroy the NHS and bring in American style health insurance.

The UK government is the greatest enemy of the UK people. The lives of those who care for our standards of health and well being are taken up with constant battling against the government's greed.

Once private companies are introduced into the Health Service you change the entire dynamic of the system. The profit motive takes over, the only winners will be predator Corporations, and their shareholders. Services will be further reduced, and expensive fees will follow. Example the average cost of a simple Hospital birth in the US is $30,000 (£21,510). Of course very expensive Insurance will mitigate some of this cost. These costs will never be affordable for the working, and lower middle class families.
