Graduates from Peninsular haven’t stopped the South West being a dental desert.

If govt really want to keep talent in the NHS it requires a decisive break from a failed contract along with sustainable funding.

“No one in the 21st century should struggle to access basic dental care or, even worse, forced to take matters into their own hands,” says Minister @SKinnock

A worthy sentiment, but this policy alone really can’t deliver that level of change. We need ambition & investment.

As today's Mirror's editorial rightly notes, this must be a beginning, not an end.

That means real reform, wedded to sustainable funding.

A year ago we helped lift the lid on the sugar-laden pouches being pushed to parents of toddlers as 'healthy options'.

Sales have crashed.

It's progress, but it's not our job to warn parents.
