Dear Julian,
I hope you will support me in a vote of no confidence in
Jeremy Hunt. I cannot think of another
time when a strike has been supported by over 90% of members of a union like
the junior doctors strike has been. Nor
can I remember a strike which has had such a high level of support. It is quite clear that what Hunt is trying to
do is dangerous and demoralising for doctors.
Dangerous because they will be asked to work hours which are
unsafe for us as patients and demoralising because he is abusing doctors that work
for the NHS which he is responsible for.
It is clear that there is no support for what he is
doing. Most health trusts have come out
against imposing the contract. Most
medical unions including nurses and consultants are supporting the
doctors. Most patients groups are
supporting the doctors.
Hunt has lied to us again and again, through misusing
statistics on admissions and deaths and trough claiming all hospital trusts
support his imposing the contract (amongst others).
It is clear that we need someone that we can trust to manage
the NHS in our interests.
Please support the motion of no confidence in Jeremy Hunt.
Yours sincerely
Tom Franklin
