Jeremy Hunt has changed the rules again. His funding cuts could see 700,000 people in poor or rural areas lose their family doctor as GP surgeries are forced to shut.
Jeremy Hunt is trying to say the cuts are fair for everyone. But the evidence is already showing how badly some communities are going to be affected. From small villages to inner city practices thousands of people will lose their family doctor.
The government doesn’t want to talk about the NHS. They’ve tried to keep these cuts under the radar and hope people don't notice.
Thirty practices in London alone are likely to close and experts are warning they have ‘not seen anything like this’ in 20 years. 13 surgeries have already closed.
Yet another example of how this Tory government is tearing down the infrastructure of local communities.
