Petition Action

Move the NHS out of political control and into an independent body.

Petition Details

Acknowledge that the NHS is so important to this country that it should not be used as a political pawn between the parties and it should be removed from their control and influence. Funding should be clearly improved and agreed, and an Independent Body is formed to administer healthcare in the UK.

Additional Information

This year we have seen how important the NHS is to the UK population. It is a leading and genuinely unique service in the world, however it is also clear the distribution of funding is appropriate and does focus on the value paid at the point of delivery of the services; name the staff. The Government and other political parties should finally acknowledge that the UK people want, without a doubt, a publicly funded NHS, and has a funding a business model set for the next 20 years
