I wonder if the Minister of Health has ever spent the night on the front line in any Accident and Emergency department in the land and witnessed the decency, kindness, competence and compassion of the staff who are forced to work in ever more cramped and degrading facilities?

Also, he was Chancellor of the bloomin' Exchequer in one of those 'predecessor' Conservative governments!

I'm rather in love with @wesstreeting Yes I know it'll be unrequited but he is one of the most intelligent Labour politicians for many years. Can't wait for him to save our NHS

@ncolloff One of my favourite poets illustrated by one of my favourite artists. What's not to like and I am currently sitting looking out at the 'silly' sheep

[Salley Vickers @SalleyVickers]

Lovely to see this again.
