Subject: Campaign update: sign the BMA's new petiton to repeal the Health and Social Care Act 2012
Reply-To: nhsrefor...@bma.org.uk
Dear colleague
As you are aware, last month the BMA launched its campaign highlighting the damage done to the NHS following the introduction of the Health and Social Care Act. Thank you to those of you who attended our launch event in parliament. This has helped us get the debate about the Act back on the political agenda.
To demonstrate the strength of feeling among the medical profession and patients about the damage the Act is doing to the NHS, we have submitted an e-petition to the Government. My thanks go to joint deputy chair of the medical students committee, Will Sapwell, for submitting the petition on behalf of the BMA.
It is important that we, as doctors, sign up to the petition as soon as possible and share it via email and social media to friends and colleagues and make sure that one year on our voices are fully heard.
I have signed the petition and will be sharing it with my colleagues at my trust. Can I please ask you to sign it and share it with your networks?
You can access it here - http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/64407
Many thanks for your help in driving the momentum for this BMA campaign. Find out more about the campaign on our website.
Best wishes
Mark
