Bridgwater & District Branch Labour Party is to hold a Public Meeting about what is currently happening to our NHS. Dr Youssef El-Gingihy, who is a GP from London, will be speaking at the free event at the Bridgwater Arts Centre on Saturday 28th April at 12.00 and it is open to all members of the public.
Gary Tucker, Bridgwater Branch Secretary, says “Despite the usual pressures of winter, this one just gone was particularly difficult for the NHS. Listening to staff who work there, this last winter was harder than usual for the service to cope. This can only be due to the terrible cuts of this disgraceful Tory government. They have deliberately under-funded the Health Service. The standard tactic of privatisation is to defund it, make it worse so that the users end up hating it so that privatisation can be justified and accepted. Add into it the legal challenge against Jeremy Hunt who is trying to by-pass Parliamentary scrutiny for his next stage of his plans- ACOs and many other things the public aren’t told about, you have a recipe for the end of the NHS as we know it. I trust my Doctor and what she says, now come and hear this doctor at the NHS event and he will reveal what is really going on. What I’ve heard so far made me want to weep.”
Book Your Free Ticket
Gary adds “Places for the event are rather limited and already many people have booked their free tickets. This is a one off event and so the people of Bridgwater & District are urged to come and discover what the Tories are doing to our NHS for themselves. There will be other activities going on as well, refreshments and a bring and share lunch for those feeling outraged by what they hear and wishing to do something about it.”
