Take heed of the docs

MOST doctors worry that Brexit will be bad for the nation’s health. It is not a concern that should be dismissed lightly.

-

Four in five have voiced their anxiety, a powerful majority demanding a considered, detailed response as the Government prepares to stockpile medicines in the event of Britain crashing out of Europe without a deal.

The potential chaos is not scaremonge­ring to diabetics requiring insulin or cancer patients needing life-saving drugs.

It is why the British Medical Associatio­n believes the British public should make the final decision on the terms of departure.

The Brexit establishm­ent, a Brexit elite encompassi­ng Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, parroting “Project Fear” simply is not good enough whenever legitimate issues are raised.

We deserve informed answers to tough realities instead of meaningles­s assurances and platitudes from those whose past Brexit promises include the £350million-a-week lie about boosting the NHS.

Fibs were told on both sides in the close referendum battle, so let’s have hard facts.

When our doctors are worried, we should all be worried.
