Don't see what this has to do with shareholders apart from all UK taxpayers being shareholders of a service they subscribe to.
I think that the NHS will be NHS Ltd.
If the Labour party hadn't introduced the National Health Service there'd now only be private health companies, for those who could afford it, whose main concern would be profit, and the dividends paid to their shareholders.

Perhaps some would like to see a return to pre-1948 Britain, where profit came before care, and where people died because they couldn't afford to see a doctor.
