Former Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn speaks during a 'Kill The Bill' protest against The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill in Parliament Square, on April 3
JEREMY CORBYN will join forces with doctors on Thursday to protest against London GP practices being sold off to a private United States healthcare company.
The former Labour leader and members of Doctors in Unite (DiU) will target the head offices of Operose, a subsidiary of US healthcare giant Centene, which recently took over the privately owned AT Medics and runs 37 GP practices across the capital.
Unite said the socially distanced protest in central London, also supported by Labour MP Apsana Begum, will highlight the “accelerating privatisation of the NHS by stealth.”
Burnham urged to create publicly-provided national care service before the end of the parliament, and to keep his promise to ditch neoliberalism
