I am so glad that it appeared during a Labour government. Within two weeks of referral I saw the dermatologist (a consultant), within another two weeks I had day-surgery to have the lesion removed. That is Labour action on cancer.

The Tory policy is on *outcomes*, but how do you know what the outcome will be before the treatment is given? How do you know what the treatment will be until you’ve ben seen by a clinician? If you cannot guarantee the two week limit then the outcome will bound to be worse.
