Require a National Insurance number to access any NHS treatment
We believe anyone wanting free medical attention or treatment from the NHS should only qualify if they or their parent or guardian have a National Insurance Number. Without this, we believe they must be required to pay for their treatment.
Ban No Caller ID phone calls
I'd like to ban the use of No caller ID phone calls, as well as measures to ensure that when a person blocks a phone number, that number can't still contact your number through no caller ID even if they're blocked.
Introduce an NHS data opt-out & require a consultation for system expansions
