Your NHS is Under Attack!
The Flowerpot
23-25 King Street
Derby
DE1 3DZ
|

Time: 7pm
Introduced by Dr. Sally Ruane De
Montfort University and “Keep Our NHS Public”
We will also show the DVD “WAKE
UP CALL” by Health Emergency.
Free Entry and refreshments
available.
The Coalition ConDem Government is
about to privatise the NHS, if we let them get away with it…
The NHS we have built up for the
people over 60 years will not just be underfunded, it will be destroyed as a
public service.
There is huge opposition to the
“Health and Social Care Bill” from all those who work in the NHS, and from
those who use it, regardless of ability to pay.
It is a Tory Bill, but it is the
LibDems, and particularly Nick Clegg, who try to pretend that it can be
amended to keep the NHS public and free for the people to use. It must be
stopped!
It can be stopped. On March 7th,
there is a big rally in London, and round the country there will be events
like ours in Derby to build up the pressure to save the NHS.
Make sure you, your workmates,
family & friends are there!
