This petition was submitted during the 2015–2017 Conservative government
Rejected petition Remove Jeremy Hunt from his position as Health secretary
Jeremy hunt must be removed from his position as health secretary and replaced by a senior doctor with multiple years experience within the NHS, who will be voted in by existing members/employees of the NHS who will put staff and patients first. The elected person should be a member of parliament
More details
Jeremy hunt has no medical background, he doesn't understand how hospitals operate or what being a junior doctor entails therefore he is not qualified to make decisions on medical issues/jobs/patient priorities. Having never worked in a hospital he has no experience or knowledge of what's required for patients or staff and therefore should be replaced by someone with the required experience who is not a member of parliament and therefore cannot be influenced by unknowledgable MPs
