Blair's former pro PFI health secretary turned private health lobbyist Alan Milburn returns for Starmer & Streeting.
Right, so despite Wes Streeting, our new Health Secretary having previously said the NHS would be privatised over his dead body, frankly few who have ever paid attention to him in recent times believe a word of that, especially when he has also talked endlessly about harnessing the power of the private sector to boost our NHS, ignoring the fact the resources and capacity are not there and indeed nor are the staff, many of the health workers in private health already also work part of their time in the NHS as it is. But nailing on the fact that Streeting is absolutely headed down the road of NHS privatisation and that Keir Starmer is recruiting a number of former Tony Blair figures into numerous parts of his government, there’s a few more videos to come covering that I daresay, Streeting has brought on board Tony Blair’s former Secretary of State for Health Alan Milburn, a man regarded as Mr privatisation or perish, he was Mr Private Finance Initiative, PFI, that placed such a huge burden of debt on the NHS when Labour were in power before. Is Starmer simply going to rerun what we know already failed?
Right, so NHS privatisation, we knew it was on the cards if Starmer were elected, if Wes Streeting held onto his seat and despite Streeting’s majority being now virtually non existent, he’s pressing ahead anyway and in what should be a frankly nailed on warning to the British public that NHS reform under Starmer’s Labour will pretty much be carrying on with outsourcing and privatisation, the spectre of Private Finance Initiatives at their height is being brought back to health in some capacity, though it hasn’t been made clear what that precise role actually will be, other than he won’t be a minister, or chair NHS England Tony Blair’s Health Secretary from 1999-2003 Alan Milburn.
Where the Tories outright just hacked the NHS up and put the pieces up for tender to outsourcing companies, creaming cash off of the NHS budget, meaning for as much as the budget itself was increased, more cash simply went to shareholders and the service continued to suffer, as every privatised service has suffered, we know none of it works now, Labour under Blairism were a bit sneakier with it. While it was the Tories under John Major that introduced Private Finance Initiatives, it was under Blair and with Milburn driving this as well, to effectively allow private sector interests, to put their cash into the NHS and take a return directly out of it, effectively piling debt onto the NHS books and off the government books. Labour looked great at eliminating government debt, but just piled onto services we all rely on. Much of the Labour manifesto, much of what Rachel Reeves and Starmer have said about growth being generated despite them putting no money in, very much implies that the PFI’s which burdened the NHS with so much debt are likely to be seen in other sectors too and we need to look out for it, because you start burdening essential services with debt, it makes it harder for them to deliver on the services we all rely on and it should be opposed.

Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on / socialisttelly )
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
