The Opposition leader will appear alongside ex-Conservative Dr Dan Poulter as he highlights how a Labour government would overhaul mental health care if his party wins the next election.
Sir Keir Starmer will vow to 'inject resource and reform' into mental health services as he welcomes the latest addition to his party. The Labour leader will promise to 'overhaul' the way mental health is approached if he wins the election, on a visit on Monday with his party's newest MP. Dr Dan Poulter MP crossed the floor on Saturday in anger over the Tory Party's handling of the NHS.
Sir Keir has branded these waiting times 'a scar on a civilised society'. He says Labour plan to improve the Mental Health Act and provide 8,500 specially-trained mental health staff, support in every school and an open access early intervention hub in every community, paid for by closing tax loopholes.
