Cutting NHS waiting lists will be "the first step" in his Labour government's plan to get the health service "back on its feet", Sir Keir Starmer has pledged. Sir Keir has vowed to create an NHS that is "there for everyone" as he plans a visit to the West Midlands on Wednesday. The Labour has said his government, if elected, would primarily focus on reducing treatment backlogs, which currently stand at 7.54 million.
" The Labour leader said he was inspired by Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital, where staff had high-intensity theatre lists on weekends up and running within six weeks. He said: "It was NHS staff working in the hospital I can see from my office in Parliament who led the way on this new model. "Labour will take the best of the NHS to the rest of the NHS, so patients in every part of the country can be treated on time.
