Well written comment. As someone close to the NHS and UK school system, Fred's type of mentality has hit these hard and contributed to Brexit.
Both are constantly bringing in "change" type consultants. If only we can cut employees/use this software package/run it more like a business/get better leaders/have more digital strategies. No Fred, they just need money. They need money to pay doctors, they need money to fund beds, the need to pay teachers.
Government doesn't run like business. A hospital can't just go bust, a council can't just shut up shop, this isn't how it should work either.
His solution is roughly saying "well I like the status quo and if you come up with anything I'll take a look but will probably shoot it down". Sorry Fred, you're on "the let them eat cake" side whether you recognize it or not. Roll on March 29th.
- alexgmcm 8y agoIt seems Brexit will do horrific damage to the NHS though. I mean turning back the clock on half a century of economic integration to become some Juche state probably isn't going to work out so well.
