The prime minister’s intervention coincided with eight more hospitals declaring they had undergone a major or significant incident, taking the total reported so far this winter to 15, as the early stages of the election campaign headed into territory traditionally favourable to Labour.
The prime minister insisted that the dramatic spike in A&E arrivals over the festive period represented “a short-term pressure issue” and criticised warnings of imminent meltdown in the NHS as scaremongering and irresponsible.
Health experts said the problems were caused by intense demand, a loss in confidence in GP availability – particularly by the young – and increasing hospital referrals by telephone-based 111 services, as well as patients’ failure to tolerate minor ailments.
Full story here.
Cameron and his misfits are destroying the NHS and this oaf said the NHS was safe in his hands.
"David Cameron said the NHS is safe in his hands as he brought the annual Conservative conference to an end. He promised "no more pointless and disruptive reorganisations". Instead, change would be "driven by the wishes and needs of NHS professionals and patients" Link to Cameron's lies here.

Cameron the weakest and most duplicitous Prime Minister in the UK's history.

I support the Labour Party. In the big scheme of things it makes very little difference to me what party is in Government.
But I believe rightly or wrongly, the very poor, the disabled, the disenfranchised are better off under a Labour Government.

I'm inclined to agree with what you say from a gut point of view but the Labour party's recent history ( by that I mean Blair, Brown, Balls etc.)doesn't inspire me with confidence.
I remember very well the disgraceful state of many hospitals after 11 years of Labour not to mention the utter shambles that was made of the economy
Like I said, it makes no difference to me personally, I have been off the grid for donkeys years.

Don't forget Gordon Brown caused the global meltdown, well at least that's what condems would have us believe.
