NHS EMERGENCY RALLY AT DoH Thursday 12th January




From the People's Assembly

The NHS crisis has reached a new level. In the last few days the Red Cross declared a 'humanitarian crisis' in the NHS and were forced to intervene. This Government has knowingly and wilfully created the crisis in the NHS. Hospitals are underfunded, social care has collapsed, which puts more pressure on hospitals, staff are overworked and conditions are deteriorating.

The Governments drive to privatise the NHS will only make this situation worse. We must take action to defend our NHS or we risk losing it forever.

Over the next few weeks there are some key events/actions building up to a massive #OurNHS National Demonstration on Saturday 4 March.
Please do all you can to make sure they are as big as possible.

Over the next few days we're calling on all local groups and campaigns to do an emergency action at a local hospital.

In London this Thursday, we're organising an emergency rally at the Department of Health from 6pm.
