Adebowale's statement highlights that the NHS is experiencing a state of paralysis, waiting indefinitely for Wes Streeting's 10-year plan while patient care suffers from overwhelming waiting times.
He emphasized that long waits for care have become the 'tragic new normal' for patients, with alarming statistics showing much higher waiting times compared to previous years.
Describing the current atmosphere, Adebowale noted that local NHS leaders feel disempowered and uncertain, stuck between the need for change and lack of clear direction from above.
Calling for a clear message from Streeting, he insisted that proactive reforms should align with government priorities, especially in prevention, digital initiatives, and community care.
