More spending on the NHS

Dear Mr Hunt,

Please make arrangements for an increase in spending on our National Health Service. As Stephen Dorrell recently predicted, the NHS is in danger of collapsing within a mere 5 years. Currently, it is under-funded, which is unjustifiable as the NHS is the cornerstone of British society. We demand at least another £15 billion from the Treasury to be spent on this vital institution which is currently under threat.

Why is this important?

This is important because the vast majority of people reading this petition will still be around in five years, and so this affects YOU. If we don't act now, then our safety and the safety of future generations will be in danger as our National Health Service slowly crumbles from a lack of funds.Furthermore, the population is ever increasing; as the ONS predicts, within 25 years the UK population will reach just over 73 million. This will put further strain on an already struggling institution. We need to say NO to spending £1.4 billion on redundancies, and YES to more spending on the NHS itself, its resources and its staff.
