Glenda Jackson, Member of Parliament for Hampstead and Kilburn, has spoken out in the House of Commons criticising the Tory-Lib Dem Government for failing to listening to the voices of doctors/nurses, experts and the public with their Health and Social Bill.

Ms Jackson slammed Mr Lansley in the house, accusing him of stubbornly pushing his reforms forward despite repeated warnings, "The Secretary of State listed in his statement concerns to which he intends to listen, but every single one of them has been raised with him before, going back to the time of the publication of his White Paper. As he did not listen to those concerns then, why should any of us believe his positive commitment to listen to them now?"

Speaking after the debate Ms Jackson added, "David Cameron and Andrew Lansley have today announced that they are taking a two month break to 'listen to the people' when in fact they have been forced to halt their plans for reform because of the overwhelming criticism expressed by the British Medical Association and a group of Lib Dem MPs and the overwhelming lack of confidence displayed by the thousands of constituents who have been writing and emailing in continually on the issue".
