Cameron is undermining the NHS - Ed Miliband

Ed Miliband MP, Leader of the Labour Party, said on the Tory-led Government’s bureaucratic reorganisation of the NHS:

“David Cameron is undermining the NHS with an incompetent and bureaucratic reorganisation which puts profit before patients.

“David Cameron made a solemn promise before the general election: no more top-down reorganisations. Yet that is exactly what he rushed in to with an ideological plan which he confirmed today is going ahead. The consequences will be billions of pounds that should be being spent on patients instead being spent on making people redundant in the health service.

“Patients are losing out with higher waiting times and a worse NHS. The best thing the Government could do is go back to the drawing board and scrap this Bill.”
