Strongly agree

Yes, but only if it proves far more accurate than doctors

Fits a Conservative ‘innovation with safeguards’ posture: allow new tech if evidence shows clear benefit and regulators (MHRA/NICE) validate safety and effectiveness. This mirrors the party’s broader pro-innovation, pro-evidence framing in health tech adoption.

Strongly agree

No, errors would blur responsibility between hospitals and tech companies

Liability/accountability concerns strongly fit a Conservative law-and-order/regulatory clarity instinct; they would likely insist on clear responsibility frameworks between NHS bodies, clinicians, and vendors before permitting autonomous prescribing.

Agree

No

More aligned with a cautious, patient-safety stance: Conservatives typically emphasise clinical governance and regulation in the NHS, and would be wary of removing clinician accountability entirely. However, they also promote innovation, so not a maximal score.

Agree

No, current AI makes confident mistakes in complex cases

A pragmatic risk argument consistent with a cautious rollout: Conservatives have supported digital/AI tools but generally within controlled evaluation and governance, acknowledging limitations and the need for clinical validation before scaling.

Agree

No, I’d feel safer with a doctor supervising

Public-safety and reassurance arguments resonate, and Conservatives often stress maintaining trust in NHS services. Still, the party’s modernisation agenda would not want to rule out AI-enabled pathways entirely.

Slightly agree

No, patients benefit from empathy and judgment that algorithms lack

They may acknowledge the value of human judgment and patient experience, but Conservatives also emphasise efficiency and innovation; they’d be less likely to ground opposition primarily in empathy/algorithms lacking ‘humanity’ versus safety, evidence, and accountability.

Disagree

Yes, it would make high quality care instant and affordable for everyone

Conservatives do talk about tech improving access and productivity in the NHS, but the claim of instant, universally high-quality care without supervision is overly absolute and downplays safety/regulatory concerns they typically accept.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Conservatives have generally backed AI adoption but within a safety-first, regulated framework (e.g., support for MHRA oversight of medical devices/software and the UK’s pro-innovation but risk-based AI approach). Fully unsupervised diagnosis/prescribing would be seen as too high-risk for patient safety and liability.
