Labour — Bristol South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2025

Debate

NHS Reorganisation

Contribution

We are putting the final nail in the coffin of the hon. Member’s party’s disastrous Lansley 2012 reorganisation—so bad that it made me become an MP. We are abolishing the world’s biggest quango, NHS England, along with 200 other bodies. The question is: why did the Conservatives not do that when they had the chance?
