Unlike the Tories, Labour understands the importance of GPs, which is why Health Secretary Wes Streeting yesterday announced a major increase in their funding.
However, it would be far better if this government did away with this tawdry system completely and replaced the Lords with a slimmed-down elected second chamber.
'Dr Wes has the cure for our underfunded GP system' Family doctors have been the bedrock of the health service since it was founded.
Keir Starmer’s decision to appointment a posse of Labour peers to the House of Lords is quite understandable.
Too many GPs are overworked and unable to provide the attention patients deserve.
