Triple Lock the NHS
Lawfully bind a % of GDP as a minimum spend (or similar), with a commitment to uphold the founding principles of the NHS. Financial means does not provide advantage, because all people are treated the same, and it is free at the point of care.
The NHS is this countries greatest achievement. It is the back bone of the workforce. Our guardian angel, it is arguably our greatest social equaliser. Every election it becomes a football, every few years budget changes affect its running. Fix a minimum level of spending each year, Let the only political wrangling be about improvements or additional funding. Protect the NHS for all future generations, from cradle to the grave, rich or poor, healthy or vulnerable.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
We understand that you want the Government to protect funding for the NHS, but it's not clear what you want the Government to do to achieve this.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
