Sacked health minister, Philip Dunne, is my MP. His callous comments, suggesting that patients in A&E should be grateful for chairs (beds are so 1970's), come as no surprise to me. In his own constituency, on Christmas eve, patients in A&E didn't even have chairs to sit on. Staff had to step over them on the floor. See my article in today's Guardian for more on the failures in Mr Dunne's back yard:
