Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on NHS Patients (Access to Medicines).


NHS Patients (Access to Medicines)

The Labour party of Nye Bevan is gone and there are few Labour MPs to mourn its passing. Why will my constituents have to pay thousands of pounds to receive cancer drugs that are routinely available elsewhere? Why will they be wheeled down the corridor to a designated private room in an NHS hospital? Is it because of the Labour Government's failure to manage budgets properly?
