Prioritise Priority 2 cancer patients to have surgery ASAP
Kings College hospital has cancelled Priority 2 cancer operations. Priority 2 are deemed urgent and should be done within 28 days of discovery to ensure the cancer doesn’t spread and chances of survival can be maximised. Cancer patients are being left devastated by this news, with no surgery date.
The government must protect all cancer patients and their treatment, especially those whose prognosis depend on surgery. Priority two cancer surgeries must still go ahead and all cancelled operations given a new surgery date as soon as possible.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
You may wish to sign this petition calling for the same action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/552734
We can't accept petitions calling for changes to how individual NHS trusts make decisions about prioritising medical treatment, as this is matter for individual NHS trusts, not the Government or House of Commons.
