Pat's Note:

Superbugs were killing people by the "hundreds", he said, but "doctors
don't dare speak out, the staff don't dare speak up because they will
get sacked".

That is a statement of fact from a senior source.

Britain has a terrible reputation for the appalling treatment of her
"whistle blowers." 

Most lose their jobs after months of abuse and cold shouldering. Most
move abroad to countries where their integrity is appreciated.

That has to be changed, and it will be.  

When Britain's bent vets spread disease overseas they sealed their
fate.

Britain's corrupt State Vets went too far. 

The reform of Britain's veterinary industry will be fast fierce and
painful.  "Defra told us to do it" will not be accepted.

The remnants clutching to the BVA, because they can't get a job
abroad, will obviously change their name to yield a more acceptable
acronym and make quite sure that anyone working for the government
get no automatic support from them.

NHS in 'meltdown' claims senior doctor

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 

The NHS is growing pressure, it is claimed One of Britain's most
senior doctors claimed today that thousands of hospital patients are
"starving" because nurses are too busy to feed them. 

Professor Paul Goddard, a former radiology section president of the
Royal Society of Medicine, launched a scathing attack on the way the
health service is being run, saying money is being wasted on
management and bureaucracy. 

He said the NHS is in "meltdown" and claimed medics refused to speak
up about the problems for fear of being sacked. 

Prof Goddard told the BBC Radio 4 Today programme: "Thousands of
patients have been starving in beds because the nurses do not have
time to feed them. 

"That used to be a major part of the nursing process; now they just
don't have time because they have to spend all their time doing
reports and management work." 

He said he was "appalled" that "an enormous amount of money has been
put in but it has been wasted on excessive management". 

Superbugs were killing people by the "hundreds", he said, but "doctors
don't dare speak out, the staff don't dare speak up because they will
get sacked". 

Prof Goddard said: "I think the general public know what I'm talking
about if I say the NHS is going into meltdown. 

"You can't get dental care. Your elderly patients - what happens to
them? You have to pay to have them looked after." 

He said draft guidance issued by the National Institute for Health and
Clinical Excellence (Nice) to deny patients four kidney cancer drugs
on the NHS was a "disgrace". 

Prof Goddard he was "delighted" that more money was being put in to
the health service by the Government but said "so much of it has been
wasted". 

He recommended reducing management

Honesty goes a long way.   Your problem in Britain is dishonesty, in
as high places as your government.

Lies.   Dissinuendo..   Money paid under the table for favors.   You
Brits have it all.   And then you wonder why you don't have
respect?

You should not take the Politburo as typical. 

Radical change is always forced by the tiniest of minorities.

The majority only come to their aid when they see which way the wind
is blowing and it becomes "safe" to do so and/or they can see a "bob
or two" in it for them.

Strange really. I was always considered very traditional and orthodox.

"A safe pair of hands"

Still you take what life throws at you and do your best. It is a great
shame I will not be able to get to that Select Committee meeting.

I'm certainly not giving written evidence to be threatened and
harassed in secret.
