Proceeding contribution from Lord Jackson of Peterborough (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 April 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Family Doctor Services.


Family Doctor Services

One always knows that the Labour party's arguments on health are vacuous when they are shroud-waving about the events of 60 years ago. In the week when the Government's own Back Benchers are revolting—even more than normal—over the abolition of the 10p tax band, is it not ironic that these proposals will potentially have the most significant impact on the oldest, the poorest, the sickest and those with the least voice in Government and policy-making? That is after a Labour Government of 11 years' standing.
