The very principle of the NHS is based on fairness for all. Instead, it's been squeezed between the Tory dogma of market efficiency and obsessive central control from Labour. Neither has made our Health Service more healthy; just more expensive. 2010-04-23T17:20+01:00 http://www.wyreforestlibdems.org.uk/news/000249/undecided_voters_swing_to_lib_dems_following_final_leaders_debate.html Last night was the final of the three televised Leaders' debates.
