Is it really helpful?

Today, David Cameron, Prime Minister, has been on the radio defending health service reforms. All very well, you may think, but is it really helpful, Mr.Cameron, to go on and on and on about how your life expectancy post-cancer is currently poorer in the UK than in the rest of Europe? While that is a very good reason to aim to improve the health service,  all your comments are doing for those of us who have survived thus far is to worry us about our prognosis.

Thank you so much.
