GP funding cut in real terms as appointment waits climb – Lib Dems
Funding for GP practices has been slashed – with patients now facing longer wait for appointments, according to analysis by the Liberal Democrats.
Experts warned that cuts in primary care “adversely impact” deprived communities and more investment is needed to safeguard the future of general practice.
House of Commons Library research commissioned by the Lib Dems found funding for GP practices had been cut by £350 million in real terms since 2019.
