David Cameron: NHS not a general election priority for Tories
PM leaves health service out of top Conservative Party issues in speech to Parliament
THE NHS is the stunning omission from the Tories’ six election themes, which David Cameron revealed yesterday just days after a dozen hospitals were plunged into crisis.
Labour leader Ed Miliband said that the NHS was now the subject that “dare not speak its name” for Mr Cameron.
