'Drop the Bill'
The NHS that we know and love is under threat. Sign the e-petition to “Drop the Health Bill”
UNISON is urging all members their friends and relatives to sign a Government e-petition to drop the Health Bill. If the legislation is passed it will cause huge damage to the NHS. Time is running out, but it's not too late. We have a few months before the fate of the NHS is decided.” If 100,000 signatures are collected, the petition will be considered for debate in the House of Commons.
Please sign the Government e-petition at: http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/22670
The government plans to massively shake-up the NHS have the potential to cause huge damage to patient care and waste vast sums of public money. The plans will turn the NHS into a business where our taxes will increasingly pay for profit-driven companies to provide our healthcare. We must ensure that the NHS continues to be a public service that gives us quality services that are local, easy to access and free when we need them.
The 'Drop the Bill' campaign aims to show the full scale of opposition to the Government's plans, unifying unions, patients, NHS professionals and the public in a final rallying cry. Everyone is urged to sign the online petition at www.dropthebill.com
