The Socialist Party says:

  • No cuts! No closures! No to health privatisation and ‘the market.’
  • Abandon the Private Finance Initiative (PFI). No more profiteering
    by building companies and banks. All new hospitals to be built with
    public funding, not for private profit, and using direct labour.
  • Rebuild the NHS as a publicly funded and provided service free at
    the point of use, with immediate cash to end the crisis of
    under-funding.
  • Representatives of NHS workers, trade unions and health service
    users should make decisions on how the NHS is run and what its
    priorities are.
  • Nationalise the pharmaceutical industry, the pharmacy chains and
    medical supply industry under working-class control and management to
    end the massive subsidy these parasites drain from the NHS. Integrate
    these services into a democratically controlled NHS.
