I quote a letter from Wendy Savage in the Guardian that praises the President of the RCS. You could replaced your broken link to PA with http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/articles.aspx?cp-documentid=155997096 or a page ‘RCS calls for greater clarity on role for medics in NHS Reforms’ that has a pdf with their equivocal initial reaction.<br /> <br />I urged Sunder Katwala, GS of the Fabian Society to which I belong, to advocate a more socialist NHS and emailed Dave Prentis and Brendan Barber urging UNISON to create an alternative to government’s proposals with Gerry Robison and Peter Fisher. So far, no replies!<br /> <br />What stops your leaders from imagining an NHS friendly management? Start with an Executive Agency not a plc. Think socialist not capitalist. Read my stuff. Don’t become enthralled by multiparty democracy.<br /> <br />I sent a printout of your letter to my MP. But can he compete with the big health care companies many say motivate Lansley? I will be sending him a data disc with my Memorandum and other stuff I’ve written and found.George CA Talbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18239480745401938873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36406147.post-39086044272905875832011-02-17T21:58:44.149+00:002011-02-17T21:58:44.149+00:00Thanks George, have fixed the links.

The problem is, making it happen.<br /><br />AFZalienfromzoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07697239809192832680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36406147.post-57698203247946942252011-02-17T21:29:11.767+00:002011-02-17T21:29:11.767+00:00Under Unnecessary, you say that a more detailed an...Under Unnecessary, you say that a more detailed analysis by the University of York shows that productivity is actually improving. What about better management? Since his six months at Rotherham Hospital in 2007, Gerry Robinson has claimed good conventional management would bring large benefits. A search of the BBC yields several reports. In one he was scathing about Lansley’s reforms; Are NHS reforms really necessary?, Today, Radio 4, 15 December.<br />Please note the link for reference 12 has an extra http//!George CA Talbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18239480745401938873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36406147.post-21679644283931228652011-02-16T10:13:06.035+00:002011-02-16T10:13:06.035+00:00Interesting!

As an amateur philosopher, I urge socialist emulation, subsidiarity and better conventional management to improve efficiency in naturally socialist public services.
