Liberal Democrat — St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 31 October 2024

Debate

Cancer Strategy for England

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for securing this debate. The statistics he has shared are truly shocking. I want to draw attention to the five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer, which several of my constituents have raised with me. They have heartbreaking stories of losing loved ones from a position of diagnosis at stage 4. Does my hon. Friend agree that those statistics highlight the need for a cancer strategy in the UK in order to up early diagnoses and drive forward research?
