The last thing NHS patients need is just another corporate profiteering deal. We don't have to accept this. Take action to stop this deal: vist.ly/5auxz
Graphic showing a quote from Tony Sullivan (co-chair of Keep Our NHS Public): "Donald Trump’s demands for higher drug prices are set to drain an estimated £45bn from the NHS over the next decade. At a time when patients are waiting longer than ever for treatment, handing over billions more to US pharmaceutical giants is like trying to put out a fire while pouring petrol on the flames.”

Screenshot of a post from @MikeLevin on X, posted 13 hours ago, stating that Trump sued his own government for $10 billion and then settled with the DOJ he controls, cutting the judge out of the process. Levin describes the resulting $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded fund controlled by the Attorney General with no court oversight as the most corrupt scheme of Trump's presidency.
