Three reasons to say no

  • 1

    Privatisation:

    Our money wasted on private profit and decisions made by management consultants

  • 2

    Worse Patient Care:

    Postcode lotteries, hospitals closing, fewer treatments and longer waiting times

  • 3

    More Red Tape:

    Costs to the NHS and taxpayers up as hospitals are tied up in bureaucracy

Sign our NHS Christmas card to Cameron

Sign the Christmas card now

Yesterday, children across the country opened the first window in their advent calendars, starting the countdown to Christmas.

But we want to mark the countdown in another way - by sending David Cameron a message that all we want for Christmas is our NHS.

Cameron’s Health Bill, the Bill that will rip apart our Health Service, is still making its way through the House of Lords. Our fight to stop this Bill is far from over: Labour Lords are making a strong stand against it, and it still needs to go back to all our MPs to be debated before it can become law.

But if we want to defeat this Bill, we have to keep up the pressure on the man who is responsible. That’s why we’re going to deliver ‘Health-Scrooge’ Cameron a big Christmas card from all of us, saying: all we want for Christmas is our NHS. Will you sign the card?

Cameron’s Tories, backed up by the Lib Dems, are putting our NHS at risk. Their cuts mean that people are already waiting longer for the treatment they need, and they are wasting billions of pounds on a top-down restructure that will mean:

• worse patient care with services cut, hospitals closing and longer waiting times for treatment

• more privatisation and more companies making money from all parts of our health service

• more red tape making it harder for nurses, doctors and other health professionals to do their jobs

David Cameron promised to ‘protect the NHS’, to ‘give the NHS a real rise in funding’ and to ‘stop top-down NHS reorganisations’. He is breaking every one of those promises – you just can’t trust the Tories with the NHS.

Join thousands of other people in sending ‘Health-Scrooge’ Cameron a Christmas message - all we want for Christmas is our NHS. Sign the card today:

This Christmas, we want a gift that matters to everybody - a National Health Service that puts patient care before private profit.

PS. If you have 2 minutes to spare, why not sign the Government e-petition calling on Cameron to drop the Health Bill? http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/22670
