Rishi Sunak’s speech will be of no comfort to the many patients waiting in pain to see a doctor in Shropshire and across the country, says Helen Morgan.
Draft budget proposals for the 2023-24 financial year, published earlier today (4th Jan), look to stabilise the Council’s financial position despite a period of rampant inflation and continuing decline in central Government support.
Cumbrian MP Tim Farron has called for Parliament to be recalled immediately amid estimates that 500 people each week are dying due to A&E delays.

Responding to Rishi Sunak’s speech, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:
MP Helen Morgan detailed how she moved from working at a family firm in North Shropshire to representing the area in Westminster during a talk with a local community group.
