NHS was founded in 1948 not 1945.
The housing crisis has its roots in the inability to build houses or replace council housing following Right to Buy in the 1980s.

It's not just Ed's story. It's our story.
My mother has worked in H&SC since 1978, I have worked in the sector since 2022.
Care & the NHS are baked into my DNA.
It raised me, and last year saved my life.
Carers are the angels gifted to our country it's time they got a fair deal.
Caring isn't just Ed's story, it's the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love.
The Liberal Democrats will be the voice of carers every day, fighting their corner in Parliament.
