The govt's senior transport official warns that open-access rail services could cost taxpayers £229 million a year. Ongoing privatisation would mean the government couldn't reduce fares or make fares and timetables simpler. GBR has to = public ownership. vist.ly/3n8ce6w

Keir Starmer wants us to clap for a Labour government paying the private sector to deliver operations? How about *rebuilding our NHS capacity*, as promised, so we don't have to rely on the private sector? END AUSTERITY as Lord Darzi said was necessary END wasteful PRIVATISATION

We need an immediate moratorium on open access applications!🚆 When East Coast was in public ownership from 2009-2015 it returned £1bn in profits to the taxpayer💷 Now London North Eastern Railway requires public subsidy as FirstGroup plc is sucking all the profit out of the line with Lumo 💸

Did you spot it? This government wants to use a PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP for Neighbourhood Health Centres in its 10 year NHS plan *Even though Private Finance Initiatives mean the NHS paying up to 27 x over for hospitals* Take 1 minute to say no weownit.org.uk/act-now/no-new…

🚨 BREAKING: Bereaved families unveil memorial bench outside The Labour Party HQ to honour lives lost to NHS urgent care delays. 1 year ago, it stood outside Tory HQ. Despite a change in govt, the crisis continues. The #NHS Long-Term Plan can't fix this without real investment.

5 ways the government's new 10 year health plan gets it wrong What happened to Labour's plan to "make the NHS so good no one has to go private"? weownit.org.uk/news/5-ways-th…

Labour MPs PROMISED YOU they would make the NHS so good, no one would have to go private Wes Streeting's new 10 year plan *should have set out how* 1) investing in NHS capacity to match comparable EU countries 2) phasing out the private sector over time weownit.org.uk/news/5-ways-th…
