Starmer defended backing the use of the private sector in the health service, despite his leadership pledge to 'end outsourcing in the NHS'
leader said his party would bring forward a “Take Back Control Bill” which would devolve power from London to communities across the UK.READ MORE:Speaking to Sky News’s Sophy Ridge On Sunday, Starmer said: “We’re not talking about privatising the NHS. The NHS has always used elements from the private sector, GPs are an example of that.”
Pressed on his pledge to end outsourcing, he added: “Outsourcing of some issues and functions I don’t think has been very effective. “If you take the NHS, the NHS has always used GPs in private practice for many, many years the NHS has referred patients to the private sector to have operations. “Let me be clear, we’re not talking about privatising the NHS, we’re talking about using the private sector effectively.
“Free at the point of use is an absolutely governing principle as we go into this review, but we do need change and reform.”
