Mr Speaker
Order. I would like to accommodate a few more questions, but from now on I really do require single-sentence questions without preamble and comparably pithy replies.
Jane Ellison (Battersea) (Con)
My constituency has considerable health inequalities, so I very much welcome the fact that tackling health inequalities is at the heart of the Bill. Does the Secretary of State share my surprise that the Opposition do not similarly welcome that?
Mr Lansley
I have to tell my hon. Friend that nothing much about the Opposition surprises me any more.
