Now, I'm not a fan of the Guardian at the best of times, as it appeals to bleeding heart ultra liberals, and the quality of the journalism and editorial can be terrible at the best of times, but I still read it to get a balanced view of events (just as I might look on the Sun, Express or Mail occasionally)

 

But their editors have played a blinder today.

 

Reporting on the Junior Doctors strike, I noticed something odd about one of the pictures. They've used a picture from a 28 Days later secret cinema showing to represent the doctors striking :D

Dont believe that the doctors should be allowed to strike - however do agree that negotiations needs to take place.

 

There is no excusing that the NHS needs a major reform (inc - free at point of service) - clearly the status quo is not sustainable.

Yep, know a few who are running in wards that are 15+% understaffed already. The new contract removes a bunch of safeguards around hours in the schedule, so those wards would become 'fully staffed' without having to hire anyone.

 

The cynical view is the whole NHS is being set up to fail, so his mates/private companies can step in and lend a hand. For the public good of course. But thats ok, most people won't realise what happened for a few years, by which time it's too late.
