When Labour came to power in 1997, a staggering 283,866 people were waiting 6 months or more for an operation.
By 2007 the number was down to 199.
Just one astonishing fact I came across while recording this and it's a reminder that government really can change things - for the better.

Multimillionaire Brexiter, Tim Martin, urges pubs to back Reform. Just like he urged the country to vote for Brexit. Too bad if it makes you poorer. Too bad for the children he’ll push back into poverty. Tim wants more money. And he couldn’t give a shit about the cost for everybody else.
