People are just tackling Tony Blair on the issue of GPs only giving appointments 48 hours in advance.

Clearly the one we were trying to get an appointment at for someone a few weeks ago is not the only one doing this...

What surprised me more than it actually happening (I already knew it was, but anyway...) was that it was news to him. Surely as a politician he'd have learned that some organisations take guidlines as mandate.

I think it's 24 hours here..

On the bright side you actually can get to see the Doctor within 24 hours, and one occasion - the same day (it wasnt even /that/ urgent)

A politician in Australia recently found himself with a few health problems and had to deal with the hospital system for a few weeks. He came out enraged, determined to sort out the system. I believe he failed miserably :)
But it's funny that they only take action when things happen to them personally a lot of the time. Here they are, meant to be representing the people but just not giving a hoot that everyone else deals with this stuff daily. Waiting for the pollie to go through the same crap can take years.
