This is more up to date: http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-files/Guardian/documents/2009/09/16/Public_spending_160909.pdf
Spending in Wales by Westminster is a lot less than people think and of course these figures would need to be offset against any net contribution from Wales.
Don't believe all the propaganda that is spouted elsewhere. They only do it to wind certain people up.










Which is not to say that I don't  whistle:

Less money is being spent on the NHS per head of population in Wales than in the rest of the United Kingdom, according to official figures.

Well I'll go to foot of our stairs!

Having had polyps removed in the past I get regular checkups anyway but the screening is definitely a good idea.

Yes ~ I agree that screening is a good idea ~ it was more the amusement factor of imagining the crooked postman opening the letter he has stolen to find the envelopes full of sh*t that I liked. That and the concept of DIY  ;)


Glad you get the check-ups ~ I had the polyp removal some 7 years ago and when I chased to find out why I hadn't had the promised call back for a check-up I was told "We don't do that anymore if the biopsy was negative"
