NHS: two-year waits increase for the first time in two years. This is how Labour run the NHS

Commenting on the latest NHS statistics for Wales revealing an increase in the number waiting for treatment to the highest level on record and an increase in two-year waits for the first time in two years, Sam Rowlands MS, Shadow Health Minister, said:

“These atrocious statistics show that the NHS is going backwards under Labour.

“Unlike in England where progress is being made to cut waiting lists, progress is in reverse under the Labour Welsh Government with two-year waiting lists increasing for the first time in two years.

“Keir Starmer has called Labour-run Wales his blueprint for what a UK Labour Government would look like, a stark warning for the whole UK.”
