I’m Matt and I work as an NHS nurse. We all know that Government cuts are coming in response to the economic crisis. I have started this petition to ask this government to protect our health service by not making those cuts in the NHS. 

I’ve worked in the NHS for the past 12 years and over that time I’ve watched our services being cut away by successive governments. We cannot accept any more spending cuts - it’s not possible to provide the same level of health care with less and less every year.

A return to austerity would mean that our NHS is truly lost. 

We have already lost so much - NHS beds, appointments, operations, tests, and staff all cut to the bare minimum. The end result is where we are today: too many people waiting for treatment, whilst NHS staff are leaving in their thousands because we’re exhausted, traumatised and can’t pay the bills.

More cuts would make things even more dire. Our NHS would not be able to survive a further reduction of resources. We need as many people as possible to sign the petition to make it clear to our elected politicians where we stand. Rishi Sunak has been Prime Minister for less than four weeks. We have already seen high profile u-turns from this government so we already know that public pressure works. That is why we need your support today.

Please sign this petition to ask Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to protect our NHS and guarantee no more spending cuts to our health service.

Thank you.
