Sunak’s speech will be no comfort to patients waiting in pain

Responding to Rishi Sunak’s speech, North Shropshire Liberal Democrat MP Helen Morgan said:

“Rishi Sunak’s speech will be of no comfort to the many patients waiting in pain to see a doctor in Shropshire and across the country.

“At the very moment he’s talking about waiting lists, ambulances are piled up outside our A&Es and hospitals are urging people to stay away.

“The Prime Minister’s key points sounded more like a hit list of Conservative failures than a plan of action.

“In the last year we’ve had three Prime Ministers, four chancellors, four health secretaries and zero improvement in the multiple emergencies gripping the country.

“Just like his predecessors, Rishi Sunak has no grasp of the crises crippling the UK and the only real route to improvement is through a change of Government.”
