CAMPAIGNERS slammed Labour’s NHS pledges as “not fit for the future” today, urging the next government to declare a national health emergency to repair the damage from 14 years of Tory austerity. 

Keep Our NHS Public pointed out that Labour’s manifesto offers no commitment to investment in the NHS, which currently has a shortfall of £40 billion a year compared to France.

They slammed the party for instead prioritising “reforms” and failing to commit to ending wasteful and damaging investment in the private sector.
