1️⃣ FUNDING
These promises of “extra spending” we hear every year never materialise
The reality: An NHS underfunded by by 30% since 2010
That’s 30 BILLION / year short
The recent ‘cash injection’ promised by the Tories, is STILL under what the 4% needed to stop further decline

2️⃣STAFFING
Dangerous staffing shortages across the NHS
40,000 nurses
10,000 Hospital DRs
7000 GPs
For years the govt have been warned about the worsening shortages
Their response:
Visa caps
Nursing bursary cut
Training budgets cut
Imposing unfair contracts on Junior DRs

The staffing shortages not only put patient safety at risk
But put immense pressures NHS staff
Many of my colleagues end up working unpaid overtime
And many suffer from stress & burnout
There have been 430 doctor & 300
Nurse suicides in the last 7 years

3️⃣ MIGRATION
We have the worst #WaitingTimes on record
govts response?
Instead of taking responsibility for their OWN policy failures
They blamed migrants
Straight from the #ToryAusterity playbook
The reality:
#Migrants on average use the NHS LESS than native born people

The reality:
#Migrants on average use the NHS LESS than native born people
#OurNHS was built by migrants
Our #NHS & #SocialCare would collapse without its migrant workforce
The xenophobic sentiment promoted by some of the leave campaign has led to 90% drop in nurse registrations from EU
Plus a ⬆️ in racial abuse towards #NHS workers
Utterly Shameful
