I am an NHS GP and I have written this pledge with the intention of seeking support for the NHS and to highlight how the current direction of travel of the NHS is a major concern to many people in the country.

I am asking you to support the NHS pledge below. I am hoping to get significant support for it in order to pressurise politicians and NHS policymakers. There are no restrictions on who can sign the pledge.

Thank you.

  1. The NHS is one of the best healthcare systems in the world and we wish it to be publicly funded and publicly provided
  2. The Health and Social Care Act will lead to the rapid and unwanted expansion of large commercial companies in the NHS
  3. The concept of 'Any Qualified Provider' in the NHS should be ended and a publicly provided NHS should be the 'preferred provider'
  4. Political parties must fully commit to repealing the Health and Social Care Act and openly support these four statements
