  • NHS plan won’t come close to getting Britain’s sick back to work

    Opinion

    Good health is good business, and Britain is painfully unwell. Starmer's 10-year NHS plan just won't cut it, writes Lord James Bethell.

    LONDON, ENGLAND - JULY 03: Britain's Health Secretary Wes Streeting (L), Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves (C), and Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer react during a visit to the Sir Ludwig Guttman Health & Wellbeing Centre on July 03, 2025 in London, England. Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting launch the government's 10-Year Health Plan, outlining how the Labour government will deliver the Plan for Change mission to rebuild the NHS through three key reform shifts: analogue to digital, hospital to community, and sickness to prevention.
