Andrew Dismore, Labour London Assembly member and parliamentary candidate for Hendon said:

“This is a real indictment of the performance of the NHS under this Government. to think that 10% of the baby boys born in Barnet  today will not  reach retirement  age is shocking. we are not talking about those born in past years , but the position as it is today in real time.

“We need a Labour Government committed to the NHS to get to grips with this, to see what we can do to avoid this appalling outcome.”
