I wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition

Nobody expects the General Practitioners Committee............

Dr Rant's recent piece about the 'mole' inside the GPC seems to have touched something of a raw nerve. We have heard from at least two members of the GPC (neither of whom is our mole!) that there is currently something approaching a witch hunt trying to identify our source..........

In retrospect, our description of our source as 'actually being an actual member of the actual GPC' may have been a touch ambiguous and a bit of an exaggeration and could well be the source of the confusion. For that we humbly apologise, and you can rest assurred that will give ourselves a very stern talking to indeed. Slipping to Daily Mail standards of journalism is unforgivable.

However, the GPC's reaction to the story shows that it must in fact be 100% true!!

Cardinal Buckman - Fetch: The Comfy Chair!

If Dr Rant were being mischievous, he could use this method to confirm the truth or otherwise of any future hunches or mumblings by claiming it comes from our mole......if they bite it must be true!

It is deeply flattering to have attracted the attention of such an august and influential body as the GPC, and it would be churlish indeed to pass up an opportunity to whisper in their collective shell-like. Our message to the GPC is:

Do you not find the complete lack of surprise about the DDRB amongst doctors on DNUK and on this blog strange? This jaded cynicism and contempt for the government and their hollow threats should set alarm bells ringing in Tavistock Square.


Keep it up - you have our support. Fight fire with fire with fire, and do not underestimate the profession's stomach for a fight.

I almost hat the BMA as much as I do the government- almost, but not quite.

In 20 years plus of doctoring I have never found anything quite as emetic as the BMA's GPC "Moralising" over a leak.

This is the same GPC which wants to keep it musing secret from those of us daft enough to pay them 30+ quid a month, as we are not worthy to know what the great and good are up to on our behalf.

"We are not worthy so much as to gather up the crumbs under Thy table"

Verily- they are cunts.
