Keir Starmer to lay out 10-year plan and three 'big shifts' to improve NHS

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will lay out his 10-year plan and three "big shifts" to improve the NHS, but will warn it will not be a quick fix.

A new report into the NHS was ordered by Health Secretary Wes Streeting, and carried out by peer and surgeon Lord Darzi - it's expected to lay bare the health service's core failures.

It will conclude the NHS is in a "critical condition", with record waiting lists and too much of its budget spent in hospitals, as well as saying the nation's health had significantly deteriorated over the past 15 years.

10 year plan. Why would they do such a thing. Labour will be out at the 1st opportunity.

Stopping health tourism is his priority .. said Sooty to Sweep.

Gormless Starmer will only see five years maximum, less if he gets hoisted out earlier !

I feel so anxious everyday with this man at the steering wheel of my great country.

I have no racist or prejudice views and work as a male nurse in the NHS. The NHS is on its knees, partly because many more expensive techniques, procedures and medications are being used than ever before. But the other main reason I think, is because too many people are trying to use it, that don’t or have never paid any contributions towards its use. Over the past decade nearly 10 million refugees/migrants have come into our country, without ever paying into the NHS, but they are much more likely to use it, mainly because these people have come from poverty and war torn countries. Also add to this the UK economic “inactivity rate”, people who don’t work for one reason or another, which stands at a record 22% (2023), that’s people not working and paying contributions into the NHS. Also there’s the argument that we need more doctors and nurses from abroad, which obviously if the extra sudden increase in population wasn’t so dramatic, our own-grown doctors and nurses would be good enough.

How arrogant to think he is going to still be a PM after five years. He really has a black hole to worry about…it between his ears and his intellect.

Are they going to deliver 60, 000 diagnostic centres each with 1 X CT scanner which costs the NHS about £500, 000 each, then they have to build the specialist room to house the scanner. Just for the scanners alone that’s £30 billion over 12 months. It normally takes anywhere from 4-6months from ordering to delivery for one scanner. Have I completely misunderstood what’s going on here?

[ronnieright]

Starmer wont be in office in ten months..never mind ten years !

[NoWindNoSunNoPower]

No. No. No. No. No.
it’s a 5 year plan.
Just ask Stalin and Mao.

[SteveShaw-nhsb]

Get rid of those none jobs for Wokeies, and bean counters.

[wbacharlesbeadle]

It needs to go, European models work much better. It’s a complete black hole for bureaucrats

[markyoung]

Labour giving and wasting more money to little crook zelinsky.600 million would be useful to the NHS.

[jamestylertyler]

Does this mean our tax money won't be wasted on tick tok dancing nurses during a raging 'pandemic ?

[Monkeyuface]

10 the funiest thing i've heard in a long time 🤣

[melgrant]

This government should carry a health warning.

[TZplayer]

I wonder why the nhs do not publish demographics in their statistics. What was the impact on the NHS when Blair gave an amnesty to all those illegals? What would be the impact of the NHS if StasiStarmer gives an amnesty to the current batch of illegals?

£350m went on paying furlough through Covid.

[sueclements]

How long will patients have to wait for the reports on their scan?
There's a huge shortage of consultant radiologists.
They need to look into the cronyism that exists in the NHS, jobs for the boys.
The bullying, particularly of front line staff.
