Nationalising medicines will not help patients.

Health Secretary Matt Hancock has explained why Jeremy Corbyn’s plans to nationalise medicine would mean fewer patients getting the life-saving drugs they need.
  • This week, we negotiated a deal so that NHS England can offer three life-saving cystic fibrosis medicines, benefiting around 5,000 people who may now take up these treatments.
     
  • Our world leading life sciences sector and robust drug appraisals system means we can get lifesaving drugs at a fair price on the NHS.
     
  • Labour's proposals to nationalise part of the pharmaceutical industry would drive away research and investment, and mean fewer lifesaving drugs would be developed in the UK.
