Forget ‘refounding Labour’, now’s a time for ‘reviving Labour’. Few expect that the substantial poll lead will survive the few months prior to the 2015 general election, whose date we already new due to the fixed term legislation. Ed Miliband can easily deliver the renationalisation of the NHS, thus reviving Labour’s popularity and sense of direction immediately. Indeed, the Hillsborough campaign by Andy Burnham MP has this week shown what a highly-focused, principled campaign, delivered with passion, can produce. In an opposition-led debate on the NHS on 16 July 2012, Mr Burnham renewed his attacks in a tour de force speech on the Health and Social Care Act [2012], which became law earlier this year having endured a tumultuous passage through Parliament. Opening the debate, Mr Burnham said: “We will repeal the bill, it is a defective, sub-optimal piece of legislation that is saddling the NHS with a complicated mess. The gap between ministers’ complacent statements and people’s real experience of the NHS gets wider every week. They are in denial about the effects of their reorganisation in the real world, it is dangerous complacency and it can’t be allowed to continue.” Burnham fundamentally holds the strong belief that the Act abolishes in its entirety the national nature of the NHS, and introduces an ‘unfettered market’, which he has consistently opposed even when being a Health Secretary for Labour.
