NHS England’s chair is paid by a VC firm invested in a private ADHD provider. When senior leaders and MPs have current or recent financial links to private healthcare companies, the chances they’ll be concerned about NHS privatisation are pretty low… observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Two year old Finlay Roberts died in 2024, hours after spending most of an evening in an A&E corridor. A coroner said better care would have given him a chance. Corridor care is never acceptable. The govt must invest in #NHS beds, staff & social care now. www.itv.com/news/2026-10...

Health Sec Yvette Cooper is absolutely right to ask for more money for our struggling NHS after years of chronic underfunding. It is shameful that Andy Burnham and John Healey are refusing. NHS patients will continue suffering & dying with this approach. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

I was naively full of hope at the new PM, but he's just like all the rest. Telling the NHS to "live within its means" and assuming that bunging in a few quid for winter at the last minute will stop the carnage. FFS, when will they learn & how many more must be sacrificed on the altar of stupidity.
