💥 Private healthcare bosses had a hand in govt 10yr NHS Plan.
Executives from UnitedHealth, InHealth and more sat on working groups that helped draft the blueprint.
Patients deserve a health plan shaped by public need, not private profit.

I think people would feel much more positive about tax/ tax rises/ the country in general if they knew that none of the money put into public services was being siphoned off into private shareholders’ pockets.💰🚨

It's mad how much people care about immigration when it is so proportionately unimportant compared to healthcare, cost of living, poverty, climate change, wealth inequality, war etc. How easily people are convinced to rage about the wrong things by charismatic manipulators and social media posts.

Its prominence is because
-Embarrasses the government
-Requires zero analysis by Chris Mason
-Pleases the Reform loving management

Johnson’s cull of MPs prepared to tell the truth about Brexit consigned the Tories to the absurdity & irrelevance they currently enjoy. The media’s pitiful complicity in & failure to explain this lets Farage move in to the vacated space despite embodying the stupidity & bigotry that did for them.
