  Doctors lead the fight to 'save the NHS'
  
  Just as the Grand National ended, a cancer doctor completed a far more gruelling
  
  35 mile ultra-marathon in which he ran from Leeds to Sheffield dressed as David Cameron
  
  with his orange poodle Cleggy, to highlight the Tory and Lib Dem governments
  
  dismantling of the NHS. Dr Clive Peedell, the consultant oncologist, who co-founded the
  
  NHA Party last November following serious concerns about the Coalition Government's
  
  NHS reforms, ran over 30 miles further than the Grand National horses to draw attention
  
  to the introduction of Health & Social Care Act  and the role of Nick Clegg and the Lib Dems
  
  in allowing it to pass into law. Dr Peedell was also highlighting the need to oppose
  
  controversial NHS regulations which force nearly every part of the NHS to be opened
  
  up to compulsory competition. There is a crucial vote on this in the House of Lords on April 24th
  
  . He ran 35 miles from the Department of Health in Leeds to Nick Cleggs Sheffield Hallam
  
  constituency where he delivered an NHS death certificate
