About this listen

A patient lying in a hospital bed waiting for an antibiotic that’s out of stock — this is becoming the new normal across the NHS. In this video, I uncover the truth behind the growing medicine shortages in the UK and why even basic drugs like penicillin, insulin, ADHD medication, and HRT are disappearing from pharmacy shelves. I explain how global supply chain issues, Brexit, and the NHS’s relentless push for low drug prices have turned what used to be rare disruptions into everyday crises. With shortages now tripling in just four years, I share real stories from the frontlines — pharmacists, doctors, and patients all struggling in a system built on fragility.From pharmaceutical manufacturing in India and China to the impact of COVID-19, currency collapse, and Brexit border delays, this video explores why Britain keeps running out of essential medicines and what that means for patient safety. I also discuss what needs to change — from reforming NHS drug pricing to investing in UK-based medicine production and improving supply chain resilience. If you care about the future of healthcare, NHS reform, and ensuring patients never go without life-saving medicines again, this is a must-watch.
