We Own It
@We_OwnIt
After 40 years, privatisation of our public services has failed. It's time for public ownership. We use it, we pay for it, We Own It.

We should be working to retain our NHS staff and attract back those who have left. Scrapping services that currently make working in the NHS tolerable seems purposefully designed to kill the NHS.
Now more than ever we must fight for our NHS. #NHSPledge
This is a BRILLIANT policy - buses in public control and public ownership, where they belong 👏👏👏
Thank you Louise Haigh from bus passengers across the country
BBC #Panorama shows outsourcing NHS operations to private hospitals costs lives. I've signed We Own It's petition asking Wes Streeting MP and Victoria Atkins to invest in the NHS instead. Take 1 minute to add your name. weownit.org.uk/act-now/end-pr…

🚍🚍🚍 'Buses are the backbone of our public transport system, but they just aren't sexy enough to command the attention of the nation's press.'
Steve Rotheram writes on how mayors are blazing a trail for Louise Haigh's bold The Labour Party bus reforms:

💪Another candidate backing our #NHSPledge - Helen Clawson, who is running as an independent candidate in the Mid-Cheshire constituency.
💙Have your candidates taken the pledge? Tell them to here: weownit.org.uk/act-now/pledge….
Private Finance Initiatives have been a rip-off meaning:
❌ Fewer teachers
❌ Fewer nurses
❌ More pollution
This is why it's so important to run public services for people, not profit.
My first appearance in the The Telegraph!

South Yorkshire has seen a 40% decline in bus mileage in the last decade alone.
That’s why we’re working more quickly than anyone to take our buses back under public control.
Louise Haigh making that process quicker and easier for others is great to see 👏
This is absolutely brilliant🎊🎊🎊and well done Louise Haigh. Giving local people the power to run their buses for people, not profit will be life-changing for so many communities.
It is good to see Labour recognise that public services work better when run by and for the public.
One of the many reasons Louise Haigh is right to be hitting the accelerator on bus franchising.
🚨Outsourcing NHS operations to private hospitals has caused deaths.
The real solution to waiting lists is to invest in the NHS and pay NHS staff.
Ask Wes Streeting MP & Victoria Atkins to stop putting patients at risk. Take action: weownit.org.uk/act-now/end-pr…
Our new petition in the Morning Star
Did you watch Panorama this week? Private hospitals run by companies like Spire Healthcare usually lack intensive care facilities
When there are complications, patients die

If we're not careful, 'Britain can look forward to a future private, healthcare system that both accumulates data for surveillance purposes, and for sharing with insurance and pharmaceutical companies.'
