Why are we waiting? Your vote can save our NHS



Thanks to the Conservatives, seeing your GP can feel like mission impossible. They are destroying our NHS. Your vote can save it. Find out more at
unsn.uk/NoMoreWait #YourVoteCan

The average wait for a GP appointment is now the longest it’s ever been.

But this election your vote can change that.
You can use your vote on 12 December to save our NHS and make a real difference to the people you care about.

It’s not just GP appointments:

  • The NHS’s ability to meet waiting time targets has sunk to an all-time low under the Tories, putting patients at risk.
  • More than 2 million adults in England are unable to see an NHS dentist
  • In October 2019 the NHS witnessed the lowest performance across all A&E departments since records began
  • More than 3,000 patients are now failing to receive their first treatment for cancer on time
  • In the past year more than 78,000 operations have had to be cancelled at the last minute due to issues such as equipment failure or a lack of staff.
This hasn’t happened by accident, years of underfunding, a lack of investment in staff, and an emphasis on profit over care have pushed the NHS to the brink.
We represent people working all across the public sector, and they tell us that the last 10 years have been grim. It’s not just the NHS, it’s schools, councils, police and more that are also suffering from devastating cuts.

That’s why this election has to be about more than Brexit

Your vote can make sure that the voices of the hard-working people delivering public services are heard.
The Conservatives are destroying our NHS. This can’t go on.
Please vote on 12 December to save the NHS, schools, public services and social care.

Junior Doctors Striking to #SaveourNHS

Solidarity to NHS Junior doctors on their 48 hour total strike today and tomorrow. Doctors will only strike as an absolute last resort and only when they think that their interests co-inside with patients.

Doctors are already overworked and the last thing we want is even more tired and knackered doctors looking after us. 

This government is proving to be dominated by hard right ideological extremists and fanatics such as Jeremy Hunt. 

This is not about improving health care. It is about cutting costs regardless of the impact on the service. Never forget that this modern generation of Tories such as Hunt and Zac Goldsmith want to first destroy the NHS in order to then fully privatise it.
