Scrap the NHS postcode lottery now

I'm sick of hearing about people in other parts of the country getting better healthcare than we do in Brighton just because of where they live. It's not right that some kids get access to specialist care that ours can't, all because of some arbitrary postcode boundary. I've seen it with my own kids, they've had to travel hours to see a specialist that someone in London would have on their doorstep.

I think we need to overhaul the way the NHS allocates resources, so that everyone gets a fair shot at the same level of care, regardless of where they live. That means more funding for areas that have been neglected, and a proper needs assessment to make sure that everyone's getting the help they need. I've read about how other countries manage to provide more equitable healthcare, and it's not rocket science, it's just a matter of prioritising people over bureaucratic boundaries.
