Every Government Dept, The NHS, Police etc, should have a long term plan, reviewed and updated every year.
It is the lack of long term planning that has enabled every Public Service to fall into the mess that they are currently in. I'll accept that there are other factors involved, which also fall under the no long term strategy umbrella.
On the above, we can agree.
1 year in and Labour are finding out the difference between rabble rousing in opposition, and sitting in the big chair with the responsibilities that go with that.
They went into the GE, claiming loudly that they had a plan ready to go from day 1.
U- Turn after U-Turn, clearly shows that they not only did they not have a plan, they still don't have a plan.
The current funding model and Modus Operandi ofthe NHS, dictates that it will never change, only tinkering at the edges will occur.
