After 40 years, privatisation of our public services has failed. It's time for public ownership. We use it, we pay for it, We Own It.

Private finance diverts money away from patient care, and into the pockets of shareholders.

Frankie says...keep private finance out of our NHS.

If you agree, then you can take action! Send a copy of our NHS briefing to your MP.

It explains all the private finance options Rachel Reeves could consider at budget - and why they are all the wrong choice.

Private finance means that you - as a taxpayer - pay many times over for the same thing.

Say no to new NHS private finance. Make sure your name is on the petition 👇

This government is considering introducing more private finance into our NHS.

They're promising to learn from past mistakes about PFI, but this promise has been made time and time again.

Sign our petition and tell them you don't want any more private finance in the NHS. Link in the first comment.

🎁This government has been busy doing some re-packaging.
We've been told that PFI won't be used again in our NHS....1/3

🤔We asked Dr John Puntis, Co-Chair of Keep Our NHS Public, if using the private sector helped the NHS with its capacity issues. @keepournhspublic.bsky.social.bsky.social

There are 4️⃣good reasons why passenger and fright trains should be in public ownership.

🚨Watch Dr Grace Brown explaining the ROSCO rip-off.

🤑Private rolling stock companies extracted at least £410 million in profits in 2023, and at least £360 million a year for the last decade.

The new Rail Bill means the ROSCO gravy train keeps rolling, extracting huge profits from passengers.

In yesterday's pre-budget speech Rachel Reeves said she was focused on "protecting the NHS".

Private funding has been disaster for the NHS. Trusts are paying back up to 27* over their original PFI deals.

The best way to protect it is to say NO to a new round of private finance arrangements.

This is so powerful.

Private healthcare has already contaminated our NHS too much. Don't let it go any further.

Outrageous: Minister misleads the public about Scottish Water to hide the failure of privatisation in England

70% think Starmer wants the NHS to be free at the point of use
vs
41% think Farage does

So what? The bar is WAY too low

The iPaper reports the Chief Executive of the NHS Confederation saying private finance is needed to fix the NHS backlog.

But adding further debt to NHS Trusts' finances will only make matters worse.

Greater Anglia comes into public ownership today🎊🎉

Passengers are one step closer to a railway that is run in their interest, not the interest of shareholders from around the world.

Time for a railway that is run for us.
