Big pharma is rinsing the NHS – take action!
UK Prime Minister
Riding high on the record profits they made during the Covid-19 pandemic, big pharma are hard at work lobbying the UK government to allow them to profiteer even more off the NHS! They're looking to overhaul a key NHS pricing deal which prevents the drugs bill from spiralling out of control.
The terms big pharma are demanding would see the NHS shell out an extra £2.5 billion each year on drugs. The last thing our critically underfunded NHS needs is pharma companies hiking the bill for essential medicines.
Sign our petition to the government today and tell them to not to let big pharma hold the NHS to ransom!

I call on you to resist demands by pharmaceutical companies to replace the voluntary scheme for branded medicines pricing and access (VPAS) with a much lower tax regime which could cost the NHS over £2 billion more every year.
Pharmaceutical companies are already some of the most profitable in the world, and additional NHS funding should go towards reversing years of cuts to services and staff.
Don’t let the pharmaceutical industry hold the NHS and patients to ransom.
