Cameron faces internal criticism over drink levy
David Cameron is facing a backlash from his own Cabinet over plans to introduce a minimum price for alcohol. Michael Gove and Andrew Lansley claim the move is unfair on low-income drinkers who consume responsibly. Meanwhile a study from the Adam Smith Institute has cast doubt on whether a minimum price would be successful in cutting crime and preventing health problems.
Andrew Lansley has said allowing online appointments will "make life easier for patients."
Mr Lansley said: "By allowing people to access the NHS online, we will put an end to the 8am rush to phone your GP to try and book an appointment.
"Reforms like this will take the hassle out of the health service."
Earlier today, Health Minister Paul Berstow told Sky News that "having a digital first approach is what this strategy we’re publishing is all about."
