Liberal Democrats Promise 8,000 New GPs and Target Key Tory Seats
The Liberal Democrats have pledged to recruit 8,000 more GPs if elected, aiming to ensure patients can see a doctor within seven days. The plan, costing £4bn over five years, is central to their general election campaign and includes measures to boost recruitment and retain experienced GPs. Party leader Sir Ed Davey criticized Conservative management of the NHS and emphasized the need for political transformation to address health and care issues.
