CARWYN Jones in a recent newspaper article was trying to defend the indefensible. Carwyn Jones is trying to defend himself from the onslaught from Westminster whereby the Tories are slating him and his Labour government for the disgraceful state of our NHS here in Wales.

I must admit I certainly don't hold any liking for Cameron or his Tory Government but on this issue he is right. Under Carwyn Jones and Mark Drakeford, our NHS in Wales has gone back to the dark ages.

We have our own doctors and nurses writing to newspapers informing us of the dire straits and the pressures they are under due to lack of funding. Only in one paper today there is a headline stating that A&E times at Welsh Accident and Emergency hospitals are the worst since records began.

The Welsh Governments target for people to be seen within four hours is 95 per cent yet it is barely reaching 81 per cent, at the UHW the figure is 74.5 per cent, at the Princess of Wales hospital it is even worse.

It’s no good throwing more money at the NHS, it’s much too late, the damage has been done thanks to the Labour Government.

Nothing but excuse after excuse comes from Carwyn Jones and his Labour ilk in Cardiff. The sooner we get rid of him the better and let’s get someone in charge who knows what they are doing because I fear that if we get another five years of Carwyn Jones and his Labour yes men our NHS will just disintegrate.
