Dear John ,

Wow wow wow! 100 election candidates have signed the NHS pledge just today, thanks to your emails! More emails are pouring into our inbox every day and we've now got candidates signed up from EVERY party except the Conservatives, because of the pressure you've been applying!

If you haven't emailed your election candidates yet, you can do that here. 


AND NOW...introducing #MakeArtNotNHSTradeDeals for anyone handy with a paintbrush, a pencil, a pair of knitting needles or any other artistic implement...
Make Art, Not NHS Trade Deals!
As Conservatives refuse to sign our pledge to end privatisation, Johnson denies in debates that the NHS is on the table, and Trump plans his December visit to the UK, if you care about NHS privatisation, this is your chance to express that in art.

Let's send a clear message at the Stop Trump Demo and beyond: our NHS already is on the table and we are united to protect it from a trade deal.
Submit to the Art Competition: Make Art, Not NHS Trade Deals

We would love you to submit an artwork, of any kind, to 'Make Art, Not NHS Trade Deals'!

Your challenge is to create a piece of art, in whatever medium you choose, whether that's felt, a drawing, or clay. We'll be showcasing submissions throughout the next couple of weeks on social media, and then we'll take finalists' work to the Stop Trump Demo on December 3rd.

Either send a photo by email, or share it with us on social media using the hashtag #MakeArtNotNHSTradeDeals

Get handy with a paintbrush (or your artistic weapon of choice)

It's our NHS and together we're making this election about protecting it. 

We're asking for submissions to be sent to us, and then put in your window during the whole election period, to express one or more of these messages:

  • A UK-US trade deal is a danger to our NHS
  • The NHS is on the table - and the only way to take it off is to end privatisation
  • A UK-US trade deal could 'lock in' privatisation 
  • Our NHS should be a fully publicly provided healthcare service - there's no place for private profits! 

We'll blow up finalists' works, parade them at the Stop Trump Demo on December 3rd,  and have our illustrious judges (to be revealed) decide our winners afterwards.

Express yourself!

Some rules for submission: 

  • When emailing us the file or photo, try to make it fit into a square, landscape or portrait frame!
  • Make sure to submit your work before December 1st at midday.
If you have creative friends or family, forward on this email so they can be part of 'Make Art, Not NHS Trade Deals'!

We've had enough of Government ministers saying the NHS isn't on the table, when 18% of contracts already privatised, and £9.2 billion has been given to private companies to profit off our NHS and from people who fall ill. Even after they're caught having private meetings with the US on drug prices as part of a trade deal. 

Let's illustrate why we need to end privatisation. Be part of a UK wide message to the Tory-Trump coalition trying to carve up our NHS.
Show how you feel about your NHS as Trump comes to visit - deadline 1st December
Thank you for artistically standing up for our NHS!
