this shows as the invited to number 10 shows, they dont care what joe public want, your having it like it or lump it.

Not a good word to say about the public sector yet the Tories appoint an ex-civil servant, with a public sector pension, to steer the NHS onto the rocks. And Lansley was Dave and George's boss at Conservative Headquarters. How could the Tories recruit someone from the despised public sector and then put him in charge of this duo of gilded youth with so much promise?

this cabal of robber barons will stop at nothing. the attack on the nhs is the biggest insult possible, and these parasites feel nothing whatsoever.

NewSpeak is alive and well. Lansley and Cameron utter words that have no discernible meaning, or mean the opposite. Such as saying the NHS isn't being sold (as he said in this clip) - when in fact they want hospitals sold off, and "any provider" to buy off NHS services.

The plans show how undemocractic this shower of opportunistic sociopaths are. This is proof positive that Cameron and Co have no interest in democracy and will continue to ride roughshod over professional and public opinion. The professional and public bodies must do what they can to show that this is utterly unacceptable.

@ Sir Michael "The language these despicable people are using is at best dishonest and at worst terrifying. "

I agree with you - but this is not just the language of the Tories - it is the language of a new professional political class with its own language that dominates Westminster today. Over the years politicians in all parties have used the language of the consumer (choice) to promote changes in public services. This is not exclusive to the Tories - Labour have also been guilty of pursuing this consumerist strategy for change. If Labour were in power right now they would be using the same language and strategy to impose changes they would want to see - whether that be to education, NHS etc etc.
