Kelvin MacKenzie launches savage attack on Labour’s NHS reforms – ‘STOP throwing money at it!’
Kelvin MacKenzie has hit out at Health Secretary Wes Streeting’s plans to reform the NHS, claiming that he “will not even be in Government in five years’s time”.
Speaking exclusively to GB News, Streeting highlighted early action taken since Labour’s election victory in July, including the recruitment of 1,000 GPs and ending junior doctor strikes.
Streeting declared: “In the coming days, we’ll be sending crack teams of top clinicians into hospitals with high waiting lists to help them to reform ways of working.”
Speaking on the new Right Brothers Podcast, MacKenzie claimed that NHS reforms have been promised by subsequent Governments “for decades”, and Streeting is “whistling out of his rear end” with his plans.

MacKenzie fumed: “He’s too cheerful to be in Labour, and he’s too cheerful to be spending my money. I don’t want 3, 5, 10 billion – and he also says they’re not going to invest until there have been changes in the NHS.
“Can I tell you Wes – I don’t know you mate, but you’re whistling out your rear end. There is no possibility of the NHS ever changing. It is owned by the unions, as we’ve seen with the disgraceful, disgusting doctor strikes.
“And nobody wants to work for it, so you’re going to have to put the money up. When you put the money up, the resentment is going to grow and I’m afraid it’s done for.”
Hitting out at Streeting’s plans, MacKenzie suggested that the Government should set up a “separate insurance area” where Britons can “decide how and where they want to spend their money”.

MacKenzie claimed: “Why didn’t you are say we’re going to set up a separate area, some kind of insurance area, where people can decide how and why they want to spend their money.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
“We don’t need the money spent, but thanks very much Wes, so as soon as you bugger off and we get some bloody gloom-ridden person from the NHS who turns up and says ‘I am the Secretary of State for the NHS’.”
Noting other policies put forward by Labour, MacKenzie raged that as well as billions more being invested in the NHS, billions more is also being invested in social housing.
MacKenzie explained: “I mustn’t be too hostile but what’s happening, on the one hand, billions is going at the NHS, and on the other hand, more council housing.
“We are becoming the kind of client state – ie if you’re right at the bottom of life, then I don’t know whether it makes any difference to you or not, but somebody has to fund that.

“The amount of money which people from the middle are now paying to subsidise other people’s lives is quite wrong, and the great thing about this, the fantastic thing about this is that Labour are going to be slung out on their a** – within five years, I’m hopeful.
“What I do know is that our country doesn’t want this. No country wants this – people are sick and tired. If you’re a plumber, you’ve got more work than you know what to do with, you’re making quite good money.
“And then you’re finding out your taxes are going up to subsidise some family down the road who of whom you know not, but to make sure that everything’s all right for them. I’m against that.”
