The Socialist Party says:
- Bring the NHS into public ownership and rebuild it as a publicly
funded service free at the point of use, with immediate cash to end
the crisis of under-funding.
- Remove the trusts, abolish the internal market, cancel the debts. Representatives of NHS workers, trade unions and health service users should make
decisions about how the NHS is run and what its priorities are.
- 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.
- 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.
- Cleaning, catering and other services should not be run for
profit.
- A minimum wage of at least £8 an hour and a 35-hour week for all
health workers.
- A socialist programme to eliminate poverty and inequality - the
biggest killer and cause of ill-health.
