A Doctor from the NHS tells a man with a BA(Hons) in politics what he thinks about the NHS Bill, based on his experience of more than 30 years of working in the NHS.  Many Doctors are concerned about the reputation of the medical profession amongst the general public, if this Bill is enacted, it is widely reported.

Andy Burnham MP, Shadow Secretary of State for Health, will repeal the Act (assuming it gets Royal Assent), if Labour wins the General Election of 2015.

Des Hudson, meanwhile, Chief Executive of the Law Society of England and Wales, was delighted this evening that their Lordships have inflicted a heavy defeat on the Legal Aid and Sentencing Bill. Like Clare Gerada, the Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners, they do not enter public life to be political, but to uphold the professional standards of the groups the represent, including reputation of law and medicine in the general public.
