Does Streeting’s NHS plan amount to anything?

13 min listen

This morning, Health Secretary Wes Streeting launched the ‘biggest consultation in NHS history’ in a bid to get public input into how to save the UK’s flailing health service. The British public and clinicians are being asked to share their experiences and ideas to help ‘fix our NHS’. After years of discussion and reviews, how likely is it that Labour delivers the urgent reform that the NHS needs? 

Elsewhere, there have been more signs of what might be in the budget at the end of the month. Who might the big winners and losers be? James Heale discusses with Katy Balls and Isabel Hardman.
