Private healthcare in this country largely functions with staff from the NHS. So the idea it can expand to help the NHS is false.
This is how the Tories intend to 'protect' the NHS.

Industrial action has been called off as over 2,000 @unitetheunion Metroline bus drivers in London have won an 11% pay increase with a 10% increase on back pay (they were originally offered just 4%).

Collective action delivers results.
