is a 62% increase in NHS Managers something that you should highlight as an achievement?!

62% increase in managers!? What a disgrace. If this is classed as an achievement then no wonder people want Blair out and fast.
The people want a reduction in NHS managers yet you fail to listen us on this and a whole other range of issues. It is us, the people, that will hold you to account and we will be brutal when our time comes.
I agree...it's quality of service, not quantity.
Excuse me - but haven't you got anything better to do - or does Minister without portfolio mean minister who sits at home blogging.
I suppose it's better than joining in with the boys food fight between 10 and 11
Obviously the above commenters haven't cottoned on to the clever parody yet...
to me this is further evience backing up the benefits of privatisation of the NHS. I would much rather pay for health insurance and know that I would recieve efficient healthcare and that my taxes were not being wasted on excess admin staff that are not actually assisting the patients or the people.
