RE the letter from Mr Houghton, April 8: "Scaring the population".

I whole heartedly agree with his comments regarding the NHS. If you go to A&E with a genuine emergency they pull out all the stops as I know from experience.

My GP surgery (Tonge Fold) is nothing but the best. Again if you have anything urgent, they ask you to go in and someone will see you.

I've never seen a queue as portrayed by the Labour poster. My cancer journey has been one of kind, caring and positive people in the NHS. So thank you to all who have helped me on my long journey. Politicians, shut up!

Mrs Jackie Webb,

Sandiford Close,
