GMB, the union for NHS workers, has responded to Donald Trump's insistence the NHS is 'absolutely' on the table in any post-Brexit trade deal with the UK.
Rehana Azam, GMB National Secretary, said:
"Today a British PM insulted our hard working NHS workers on a scale never seen before.
"Whilst NHS workers are tirelessly delivering healthcare, politicians are tripping over themselves to put our NHS at the mercy of the American market.

"At a time when GMB is campaigning to revoke section 75 and stop privatisation, President Trump is just waiting to get his hands on our NHS.
"There’s a very real danger Conservatives will just hand it over to him in a trade deal
"You only have to look to America to see how big greedy corporations are - and their track record in making money out of sick people.
