The death of the NHS...

I would write something about the new white paper on health, which is encouraging private companies to come in and take over the National Health Service. I would wonder about the final blows to its thrashing corpse being struck by a government which pretends to be of the same party which created it. I would wonder those things, but I seem to have lost the will to live.
Could the last person to leave this blog please turn the lights out?

There was a piece on Woman's Hour yesterday about midwifery and how you can pay £4k to have the same midwife present throughout your labour, if you can afford it.

When you get different personnel appearing all the way through, the breaks in continuity can lead to a few things going wrong.

Education is going the same way, with all schools "specialising" in something at the expense of something else. It's all to awful to look at with clear-eyed scrutiny.

But cheer up, it's pay day today.
