GP's work as if they were bankers and crowded in as much appointments...PrimeryTrustPartnership...HAHA....akin to loan shark...and i am a banker which is ironic!! my mum had a bad injury, could'nt get it fixed in her trust so my banker salary paid privately for her. Bevan meant well, but he didn't account fo global mobility....its a great service, but not the right service for the large majority of ponces out there. They make a mockery of british generosity.....makes me sick.

I thought I'm a million miles away from this guy's views and not to mention his very off-putting personality and style. He is definitely different to put it mildly and it now seems a liability to Conservative party ambitions; yet another loose cannon for David Cameron to deal with. The sad thing is, he has also undermined the great work President Barack Obama is trying to do; to give some basic medical care to more than 40 million American people who cannot afford medical insurance. What Mr Hannan said was music to the Republicans' ears. The trouble is they will believe Mr Hannan is representative of the British people, which he certainly is not. He represents no one but himself on this one. British MEPs should keep their noses out of US domestic politics and get on with representing the UK in Europe, for which they are paid very well.

His comments do not do justice to the many doctors, nurses and support staff that make sure we continue to have an NHS free at the point of need. If this lot get back in power, I won't be looking forward to their spending cuts on the NHS. People like Hanann are a disgrace – his party had the NHS on its knees before Labour won in 1997.

As we at the Paintbrush Collective have said, fundamentalist libertarians like Hannan, Carswell and a lot of the 2005 intake of Tory MPs are like a Militant Tendency for Cameron. http://frankowenspaintbrush.wordpress.com/2009/04/05/dan-hannan-camerons-militant-tendency/ Well said, Tom.
