DAVID Camerons public relations nightmare continued yesterday as Labour once again hammered Tory NHS privatisation plans.

A Tory poster parodied thousands of times since it was published at the last general election came back to haunt the Prime Minister again.

The original poster bearing Mr Camerons airbrushed face read: We cant go on like this. Ill cut the deficit, not the NHS.

But the latest reworking published by Labour yesterday said: The Tories want to cut spending on public services back to the levels of the 1930s, when there was no NHS.

It was launched by Labours election strategy chief Douglas Alexander along with a dossier detailing the damage done to the NHS under the Tories.

It shows how seven out of 15 patients rights enshrined in the NHS constitution have been breached including by soaring waiting times for A&E and cancer tests.

And, in a bid to make the general election a referendum on the NHS, Mr Alexander warned that the NHS wont survive another five years of David Cameron.

There is nothing which better symbolises the difference between Labours vision for the future and that of the Tories than our NHS, he said.

Another five years of this rotten government could put us on course for a doubling of the scale of privatisation as competition is put before patient care.

British Medical Association chairman Dr Mark Porter also delivered a blow to the governments record.
