I'm in favour of children with cancer having an unbroken supply of
medication. Why aren't you, Brian?

Just children, then? Other cancer patients don't matter?


Women and children first, OM. First law of chivalry. HTH.

But they mostly did use those in wartime anyway.

Corse that silly cow Budica was one exception.
