Public healthcare is a crucial component for the well-being of any society, today and future. We will not sit by and watch as public health services needed to care for Kiwis’ health continue to deteriorate from lack of funding and resources!

Once again HNZ isn't publishing the data. If Simeon wants praise we need to see more transparency from HNZ, especially around use of taxpayer money. #nzpol

“Private care does not "free up a bed" because the same limited pool of doctors and nurses work in private as well as public care. … Who will really benefit from an influx of government money into the private system - patients in need of vital healthcare or business owners?” Vital question to ask👇

Health NZ sure like to focus on the pay rise and not the others things nurses are protesting for. Like safe staffing levels and staff safety #nzpol

Health NZ 'unaware' nurses wanted three percent pay increase

My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3608... Today over 36,000 nurses go on strike. The ombudsman has told Health NZ to apologise for secret nurse staffing data. #NzPol #StrikeAction #Nurses #Ombudsman #Cartoon #Caricature #SimeonBrown #Govt #NationalParty
Cartoon. Title: ombudsman to health Nz: Apologise for secrecy of nursing stats. 

A busy hospital ward with a tiny Simeon Brown standing amongst three cardboard cut out nurses he's saying, "See!! The ward is fully staffed!" There are patients in their beds and three nurses inside the ward and two outside the ward all looking perplexed and annoyed with the obvious sham.

This is why we need to stand up for our public health system. We need to stop it going down this slippery slope that ends in a health system like the US #nzpol

ICYMI (there’s a lot of News, deliberately so), it’s the last chance on Monday to submit on the abysmal Healthy Futures (Pae Ora) Amendment Bill which opens the door to priviatisation, removes equity, undermines Te Tiriti, gives Minister Simeon Brown more power and ultimately is Very Bad For NZ 👇

In amongst the sheer tsunami of filth the current govt is pushing out, the Pae Ora amendment bill is set to do long term damage to our already compromised health system. This post isn’t mine but summarizes it well: www.reddit.com/r/nzpolitics... This bill needs more media attention! #nzpol
