Comment on Donald Trump's remarks about the NHS
Date: 13 July 2018
The Evening Standard approached us for a comment on Donald Trump’s remarks that NHS hospitals have ‘blood on the walls’
Dr Michelle Drage said: “Little knowledge is a dangerous thing. He has no concept of what our hospitals do on a day-to-day basis. He is making judgements about what goes on when he has no idea.
“His comments are wholly unjustified. He is playing with us and picking on the one thing we all know is our treasure, and that is the NHS.”
