Well, if my life is in the balance, I will be more likely to be helped by the people with me at the time, because NHS medical staff seem to be nowhere to be seen in an emergency.
My priority is to see more investment making its way into our economy so that we can afford to make improvements to the public services that we need and to have a Royal Commission set up to make recommendations as to how this creaking service can be made more efficient.
The present situation, frankly, is appalling. And before you make any ridiculous political comment, I would just remind you that when the Conservatives took power from Labour in 2010, Labour said that the increased spending on the NHS proposed by the government was 'reckless'! Check it out for yourself, it's true. So no lectures on how much better the NHS would be in Labour hands - it wouldn't be!

You are right that the crash was not caused by Labour, and I don't think anyone said it was.
However, Gordon Brown spending all our reserves didn't exactly help us weather the storm, did it?
