Strongly agree

More, but only where it can increase quality while reducing costs

The Liberal Democrats are likely to agree with this statement, as they have historically supported a mixed approach to the NHS, with both public and private involvement. They believe that private involvement can improve services and reduce costs where appropriate. For example, during the 2010-2015 coalition government, the Liberal Democrats supported the Health and Social Care Act, which increased private sector involvement in the NHS.

Agree

Less

The Liberal Democrats have historically been in favour of a mixed approach to the NHS, with both public and private involvement. They have not explicitly called for less privatisation, but their focus on increasing NHS funding and integrating health and social care in their 2019 manifesto suggests they would lean towards less privatisation.

More

Strongly disagree

Less, and nationalise all health services

The Liberal Democrats do not support nationalising all health services. They have historically been in favour of a mixed approach to the NHS, with both public and private involvement. Their 2019 manifesto focused on increasing NHS funding and integrating health and social care, rather than advocating for full nationalisation of health services.

Very strongly disagree

More, and completely privatise the NHS

The Liberal Democrats strongly disagree with completely privatising the NHS. They have consistently supported a publicly funded and publicly provided healthcare system, with some private involvement where it can improve services. Their 2019 manifesto committed to increasing NHS funding and integrating health and social care, rather than advocating for full privatisation.
