Campaign group EveryDoctor, represented by Julia Patterson, criticized the Labour government’s Spending Review for the NHS. They argued that the announced funding increase is effectively a nominal boost that fails to address longstanding underinvestment and serves to funnel funds toward private sector interests rather than genuinely strengthening public healthcare.

Campaign group EveryDoctor released a report detailing over £2.7 million in donations to UK MPs from private healthcare interests between 2023 and 2025, exposing deep corporate influence over NHS policy and potential corporate capture of public accountability.

EveryDoctor, a doctor-led campaign group, is ramping up its efforts to challenge the UK Labour government's move towards NHS privatisation. The group criticizes the reliance on Private Finance Initiatives and the influx of private capital into public health, urging supporters to mobilize and advocating for increased public investment in the NHS.

Dr Julia Patterson, chief executive of EveryDoctor, expressed deep concern over donations from private healthcare-linked donors to Labour MPs, which are perceived as attempts to influence NHS policy towards further privatisation amid an NHS emergency. The statement calls for greater scrutiny and transparency in political funding in order to safeguard public healthcare interests.

EveryDoctor, an advocacy group for doctors' rights, exposed through FOI requests how NHS spending on private mental health beds has surged amid austerity measures and a decline in public facilities. The findings highlight governmental policies that have contributed to the privatisation of mental health services, reinforcing concerns over the erosion of public healthcare in favor of corporate profit.
