Thoughts on Sir Ian Blair’s Departure

Politician does the right thing shock!

The ousting of Sir Ian Blair this week is a sign of the end times of this ever more discredited Labour government. Sir Ian was a classic new Labour appointment- good on paper, said all the right things, but not able to do the job.

Now in the NHS we too have a lot of over-promoted twaterati who can talk the talk, but who would run from any real medicine as quickly as they could. Dr Rant wonders how many of them are lined up for the chop when the new Government emerges when we voters avenge ourselves on Brown’s awful government.

This Labour government has made many awful appointments, in the NHS and elsewhere. Seeing Sir Ian Blair go raises Dr Rant’s hopes that some useless, unfit for purpose medical leaders will follow him out of the door.

Henry Porter is rude about Blair at the link above.

There's a lot of new Labour stooges who still need knocking out.

Hey Doc - what do you reckon? We got crap doctors in Wigan?

And does this mean public and private are teaming up for a Common Purpose?

Gotta wait a while now to see if my comment re Common Purpose on that newspaper is deleted - as good a way as any of telling if my suspicion is correct.

They are fond of deleting stuff on that paper. Especially stuff that is unarguable, but runs against current political doctrine.

That's why I always take a screen grab whenever I make a comment. My comments usually disappear.

While I'm here Doc - how's about a rundown on " ... healthcare commissioning experts Tribal ...".

Give me the stuff I need for a few more deleted comments on the Wigan News.

Personnel and their histories might help too.
