More than 800 patients would have missed Cancer treatment target times under Labour

How can we do any better than the Tories? I have no idea.

In the period 1 October to 31 December 2022 (latest figures), under SNP government, 71.7% or 3 056 of the 4 262 eligible patients were seen within the 62-day standard.

In the same period in Wales, under Labour government, the figure was only 52.9%.

Had NHS Scotland been overseen by Labour in the last decade or so, only 2255 would have been seen within the target, 801 fewer!

One thought on “More than 800 patients would have missed Cancer treatment target times under Labour

  1. 800 patients missing their treatment would be the tip of the iceberg if this Labour leader ever gets into power . Time after time since he conned his way into the leadership of the Labour Party he has clearly shown that he is a Tory in Tory clothing .
    How can any self-respecting Labour supporter support a man who would not alter one iota the drift in the UK towards ever more power in the hands of a few very rich people .
