Rejected petition Withhold Royal Assent and save the NHS

More details

We the undersigned will request that HRH Queen Elizabeth II secure her Diamond Jubilee legacy by withholding Royal Assent from the Health and Social Care Bill.

This bill has not been passed in 'good faith' as the Government holds no majority mandate, did not include any reference to these plans in their manifestos, trampled over the advice of healthcare workers and ignored the hundreds of thousands of people who petitioned Parliament.
