@bbcsport: Archie Goodburn has made an emotional plea to the prime minister. The Scottish 50m breaststroke record holder was diagnosed with brain cancer two years ago.
Archie, thank for you for this. I know how hard it must have been. What you're doing for other people, while you're going through all this yourself, shows the best of us.
I'd really like to meet you and hear from you directly, and I’ve asked my team to get in touch.

He’s completely right. We are so far behind in terms of brain cancer treatment. We need change

the way this country has invested into foreign policies over investing in our own people is criminal.

This is actually so devastating to watch. I hope more money gets invested soon and hopes to prolong this man’s life but the many others affected and hopefully find a cure

This was harrowing to watch. There needs to be more awareness regards rare cancers and further funding to advance investigations into cancers and offer improved treatments in this country.
