It is clear proof about James´s social conviction and I agree with him.English goverment and labour party is not what it was many years ago and people need new wind and new hope in this sea of stereotype...bored,bored and grey,grey! James said a few years ago that if he would be invisible,would be transformed into the earwig and crawled into the ear of Tony Blair! ;D I think it si not necessary now!

He is talking about the waiting lists for hospital consultation or admission. Our "free" system of health care (NHS) means that your doctor puts you on a list to see a consultant-unlike in Europe where you are most likely to go direct to a consultant and see them almost immediately. Here consultants do both private and NHS work and they prioritise their private work which means NHS patients have to wait to be seen. Labour had been working hard to get the NHS and its consultants to work more efficiently and it was working. Sadly this new government is consisted of millionnaires who can afford private doctors and they have no interest in improving the NHS. Our comprehensive health care system has long been the envy of the world- you are treated according to need not your ability to pay. Hope that makes sense-James worked as a porter in a NHS hospital so he knows what he is talking about.

Just to add- we had a change of government last year. After many years of Labour government we now have a coalition of right wingers. Ed Milliband is the new leader of the Opposition-the Labour Party.

Yes we have similar problems in our republic,private care in hospitals becomes unvavailable for normal people who is not rich too much. James is so much expansive to other people because he tried many professions,he talked about his experiences in the hospital,when he saw died people.He has compassion with all the people.Every thing which he done was perfect!
