[Davros]

Interesting that no-one posted anything about this........

I just did! (Okay, so in the David Blaine thread.. but still!)

I could be really cruel and make some flippant comment like "they actually proved he had a heart?!" ...

but then it must have been pretty scary for him and his family. I'm glad it's unlikely to return.

I was thinking that but haven't really got anything to say about it - I hope he is ok just like I would anyone and feel that this sort of thing is only ever bad for a politician in the cut throat world that they live in a sign of weakness is always bad.

If dinosaur wants to stand for PM next time she'll get my vote, the others are all crap

A friend of mine is a GP. She says that things have been underplayed a bit in the official comments on this incident. There is a history of cardiovascular disease in his family - his father had a stroke at about age 40. His exercise regime that we hear so much about would be medically advisable, given the family history, rather than just a commendable dedication to fitness.
