NHS: Independent Investigation

Debate between Wes Streeting and Darren Paffey

Thursday 12th September 2024 Commons Chamber

[Wes Streeting]

Absolutely.

[Darren Paffey (Southampton Itchen) (Lab)]

The amazing NHS staff in my constituency work tirelessly, day in and day out, in our local hospitals and surgeries. Will my right hon. Friend join me in thanking them, and will he be clear that Lord Darzi’s shocking findings are not on them, but on the appalling legacy of the Conservatives, who still have not apologised?

[Wes Streeting]

NHS staff did not break the NHS—the Conservatives did—and this Labour Government will mobilise them to help fix it.
