We're very pleased to announce that Andy Burnham will be joining us for a webchat on Wednesday lunchtime between 11.45 and 12.45.

Andy is MP for Leigh, and was Secretary of State for Health during the last year of the Labour government; he is now Shadow Secretary of State for Health in Ed Miliband's Shadow Cabinet, and as such is Labour's leading spokesperson on the changes being made to the NHS and other health issues.

He is spending Wednesday morning giving a keynote speech to the Royal College of Midwives' annual conference in Brighton, during which he's going to focus on giving women the right to choose where to give birth, with the aim of encouraging more home births.

He's also open to questions about Labour's health record (including what they got wrong) and his support for the Mumsnet Campaign for Better Miscarriage Care - along with anything else you'd like to ask about.

Do join us for the webchat. As ever, if you can't make it, please post up your advance questions here.

Thanks,
MNHQ
