For anyone who'd like to tune in and mock me, I'll be on BBC News 24 about 7.30. It's about the over 40's health checks. Some nobs have been slagging them off as a waste of time but I'm a walking example of why they're a good idea.

In what way?

you been on yet??? just put it on

 

About 7.45. You just missed him. I didn't realise it was just you. You did well, even if the evidence doesn't appear to support the scheme. I'm all for making it more a national Health service rather than the national ill health service it is now

Can't believe I missed that, can you post a link? It'll be like Brokeback Mountain 2. xx

Cheers Cath, I enjoyed it. The producer rang me afterwards and said he thought Owen had roughed me up a bit. The producer has obviously never spent any time on the GF.

 

Incidentally, the evidence comes from a Danish study across Europe and doesn't account for the new push on this initiative since 2009. I meant to get that in but didn't really have a chance to.

 

Anyway, all good fun and certainly not what I expected when I got up this morning.

He did. What a lot of nonsense, 'Dont you feel bad taking up the doctor's time when there could be patients with far more serious conditions waiting?' I think it was the Practice Nurse you saw, was it not?

I'm glad you didnt. You might have sounded like a bit of an arse. All they wanted was someone who had used the service; not an MP.

Nice shirt, by the way!
