Labour have been in government 4 months. She is shouting at the wrong people. The NHS isn't working because of 14 years of Tory underfunding and mismanagement.

That's great you rant on at a Labour MP who's been in power for 3 months and leave the Tories who have wrecked the system over 14 years to laugh on whilst now stood on the sidelines... joke.

Fourteen years where the Tories have run the NHS down And people are screaming at a government who have been in power for four months. Disgusting

Chase the money 'lost' to dodgy PPE contracts etc and get it back. Tax the very wealthy. Would make a massive instant difference. Then bring Water back under public ownership. Later also Gas, Electric etc.

Bloody mental. There's 14 years of Tory neglect & incompetence to deal with.

Must watch interview with @DrAmirKhanGP on NHS waiting lists and what we need to do to #SaveOurNHS Amir Khan, "We think the NHS is going to be there in our time of need and sadly that isn't the case for so many people now" Kate Garraway, "1 in 5 people are putting themselves into debt to pay for medical treatments" Amir Khan, "Either they pay for it or they spend weeks or months in agony waiting for an operation" Kate Garraway, "If you have a heart attack, stroke, the NHS is still, but when you come one step away from that, that's there the NHS is failing" Lindy Kirk, "I was planning to retire.. I was signed off sick because I couldn't function in the classroom.. I couldn't even put my own socks and shoes on.. I was just waiting.. If I couldn't afford to pay for it I'd still be waiting" Amir Khan, "Short-term we need to invest in NHS staff #PayRestoration Long-term we need to fill the 100,000 vacancies in the NHS.. Look at community services" "We have to be honest about austerity. Years of austerity have led to a sicker population. We need to tackle health inequalities.. Investment in social care.. better public health messaging.. Tackling obesity" "We need to invest in staff, buildings, infrastructure and technology investment" Ed Balls, "Are we moving into a phase where the NHS can't deliver?" Amir Khan, "We have to be honest about taxation. We will have to increase tax on the wealthy to pay for the NHS and get it back to what it was" "Pre pandemic we have over 4.5 million people on the NHS waiting lists and it was going up" "People might argue the NHS is a money pit, but if you look at the reality of adjusting how much money is being invested in the NHS in terms of population, inflation, that money is less than what it was before" Lindy Kirk, "I've been a higher rate tax payer for 20 odd years, I have paid my dues, I've worked since I was 23, I've worked hard for children in this country. But I've had to make the choice of paying for my surgery because the NHS is not there for me" Kate Garraway, "Department of Health says: we are making progress in reducing the NHS waiting list.. They quote the pressures of industrial action.. And that they're delivering record investment" Amir Khan, "I see it at ground level and I haven't seen the wait time come down, that isn't the reality that I'm facing with my patients"
