It was me on PM Question Time

I sent an email to Jeremy Corbyn, as so fed up with fighting the CCG & doctors, I could have dropped through the floor when he read my letter out... it was a lot longer but so thankful to him for spotlighting what we are having to go through.

Just goes to show it can be useful contacting your MP... How else will they know? 🙂

He’s not my MP I wish he was, mine is a Conservative I sent a letter to my MP to see if he could help with my fight with the CCG but did not even get a response, so I sent one to Jeremy Corbyn, that is why I was so surprised that he mentioned it. I just hope he has taken it onboard.

I watched it and nearly dropped through the floor myself to hear it mentioned on prime time TV! Good for you :)

Hi Hilary,

I saw it, I was hoping for a reply from the P.M. but nothing.

Good on you for emailing J.C.

We do need more publicity.

I've just found the transcript from Hansard :

hansard.parliament.uk/commo...

You get mentioned in Corbyn's second comment. :)

And to watch it :

Thanks I had paused the prog whilst I took a phone call, & as soon as I heard my name I pressed play but it only recorded after JC had mentioned it because of the pause. I can now show my hubby as I don’t think he believed me . Thanks again for finding it.

Q. Did Theresa May know what he was talking about or did she think he wanted to nationalise it?

Why don't we all send our stories to Jeremy Corbyn AND Theresa May. Bombard them both with the same things. It only takes 2 emails, and it might just have an effect..!?!

ILike others have suggested I think we should all send letters to PM & Jeremy Corbin. If nothing is said nothing changes. I am doing mine now. Thank you for the links sent, I didn’t actually see it at the time so this is extremely useful.

Theresa May's response to me was by someone else and it got passed to the Departmetn of Health who have been useless. I've sent a letter to Jeremy Corbyn now.
