National Health Service Bill
Debate between Caroline Lucas and Liz McInnes
Liz McInnes (Heywood and Middleton) (Lab)
I thank the hon. Lady for bringing the Bill to the House—I am glad that she has finally been able to do so. Does she agree that the real issue with the privatisation of the health service is that the money that is made goes into the pockets of shareholders and not back into patient care?
Caroline Lucas
Absolutely. It is just criminal that the money that the NHS so desperately needs to provide front-line care is going to line the pockets of private companies’ shareholders.
