The EU has British blood on it's hands

In August the European Union introduced by force a 48 hour working week restriction which has had a huge impact on the Health Service. The Times report that in the view of the Royal College of Surgeons, the new law is not only damaging patient care, but in some cases is leading unneccersary deaths.

Yesterday Labour Minister Ben Bradshaw attacked David Cameron's distain for big Government, claiming without big Government the Cameron's would not have gotten the best treatment for their disabled Son Ivan. Leaving aside the cheap nature of Bradhsaw's remarks, this is exactly why Bradshaw and Labour are wrong. This is a report from hugely dedicated surgeons who are desperate to give the highest level of care possible, such disire from staff is why the Cameron's got a good experience, INSPITE of not because of Big Government. In this case Big Government, in this case in the form of the EU, is getting in the way of that care. There are many other areas where Labour's big Government is doing the same.

This is merely one example of many, and why Cameron is right to praise NHS staff, while working to remove Big Government. getting in it's way. It also shows why the EU cannot be trusted with social policy and a campign to repatriate such powers is desperately needed.
