sick of it all

"The NHS is often called a ‘national treasure’, and its workers are sometimes lauded as angels and heroes. In the last two years of the Covid-19 pandemic we have more than ever seen the reality of how it works – and also sometimes how it doesn’t. How have we ended up in this situation? What are the factors that have led to healthcare being organised and run the way it is? What struggles are happening in the NHS currently, and how might we magnify their impact and win gains now? Understanding all this is fundamental to enabling us as workers and patients to fight for better work conditions and better patient care under capitalism now, while also having an eye on ultimately creating a future of vastly improved health and healthcare for all in a post-capitalist world."
