This video made by NHS staff already has more than 2 million views. They're telling you that voting for Boris Johnson's Tories will destroy our NHS.
Listen to them, please. And #VoteLabourOnThursday

[James Foster @JamesEFoster]

I’m not fighting this election for me.

I could survive life under Tories; I’d be alright, Jack.

That’s not good enough.

If we don’t look out for each other, what is the point.

I’m fighting for my friends, my family, my comrades & future generations.

A defining moment in #GE2019
#BorisTheCoward refuses to look at a photo of the 4 yr old child with pneumonia who's on a hospital floor. He takes the phone from the journalist & pockets it #SaveOurNHS #VoteLabourDec12 #NHS #ToriesOut #VoteLabourDecember12th
