Skimmed through to see if Hunt at any point defines what she means by “neoliberal”. She doesn’t. Although she says it an awful lot. Critiques of...
One Alyson Fox. That’s the person to whom we are encouraged to address our demands. Relieved to hear that the jumping need only be metaphorical,...
But they aren’t accountable to the public and have discretion to spend their loot as they wish, so surely the sensible approach is targeted...
I’m a bit baffled too. If I got a letter beginning “we demand” from a group of people who claimed that “we are all connected” I’d file it...
I know I’ve suggested this before, but the kite to fly in front of hatchet men at a time of austerity should be the Curtailing Access to...

Some informed suggestions that Javid could make a return, which presumably it’s permissible to say would be absolutely brilliant news.
I tend to hover around 92 for blood oxygen, and have wondered if one of those finger-clippy laser gubbins would be a fun accessory, but I have no...

Is there a means for raising those sorts of concerns privately? It feels counterproductive for this otherwise excellent report to be undermined...
I do love the trick of announcing new funding by press releasing an £800m headline, and fudging the amount allocated in the fourth round. Never...
As hacks do, this one googled to a panacea (as well as important ME facts, like the unrefreshing sleep and permanent exhaustion that characterises...

It’s a shame that takedowns of dubious remedies provide air cover for this sort of thing: With Long Covid there are extreme placebo effects,...
It’s very easy to talk to people one-on-one, as most conversations with clinicians go, without using their name, and so titles can be avoided....
Annoyingly, the hospitals link is broken, so can’t see the metrics. That’s the area where there just might be savings - but from capital budgets,...
Abominable, isn’t it! Even if it was “lain” rather than “lay”, so at least the tenses were congruent, it would be jarring. It’s all part of the...
Separate names with a comma.
