SIR - Anyone who doubts that the Tories are planning to privatise the NHS is being taken in by their lies and a vote in this year`s elections for another term of Tory rule will see the end of the NHS as we know it.

  • PART 1 OF THE PLAN: Demoralise the frontline staff and cut resources to the bone.
  • PART 2 OF THE PLAN: Convince the electorate that it is unsustainable in its present form.
  • PART 3 OF THE PLAN: Introduce partial private health insurance as a compulsory measure.
  • PART 4 OF THE PLAN: Removal of public funding, selling off to the highest bidder (or most well-connected friends) If we allow these privileged few another term, they WILL get rid of it, be under no illusions.

Once it’s gone it will be gone for ever.

THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE!
