Healthy NHS 'critical' for UK economy, says Davey

Sir Ed left his party's conference in Brighton yesterday morning to visit volunteers in the Sussex countryside, where he helped them replace a stile near Ditchling village. "There are just too many people on waiting lists who want to be able to work again, who want to be fit for work again," Sir Ed told the PA news agency.
