Keir Starmer vows Labour will make the NHS ‘fit for the future’

Speaking at an Essex ambulance station, the opposition leader argued that the health service needs "serious, deep, long-term changes" to solve its problems.

It comes as Labour pledges to ensure 95 per cent of patients have a maximum 4-hour wait in A&E if elected into government, a target not achieved nationally since 2015.
