    Also, part of that caveat is we’re partly comparing with a period during which doctors were on strike - but it’s partly thanks to Labour that those strikes ended.

    Lol. So most of these “extra appointments” are actually just the appointments that should be there anyway.

      that should be there anyway. If tories haddent driven doctors to strick over the last 14 years.

      Let’s keep the actual points valid here. Those lost appointments were directly related to Tory treatment of NHS staff.
