Politicians are destroying the NHS, and they are being supported to do so by complicit media outlets. They call attention to the problems in the NHS, but not the causes of the problems 🚨 That’s why I write my newsletter- people deserve to hear the facts💙jujuliagrace.substack.com

When we launch an open letter calling out the tories for their attempts to discredit EveryDoctor’s work on NHS privatisation, will you sign? This behaviour from them is *appalling*. If you will, please RT this. We cannot tolerate this behaviour from politicians 🚨🚨🚨

We carved out long life by sanitation and vaccination, by preventing infection. We didn't do it by catching as many illnesses as possible. This is insanity. Pure insanity.
