This is an egregious error that will get in way of NHS recovering from neglect of previous govts - at time when the PM and Health Secretary need to show they are making progress on an issue of great public importance.

At very time when NHS staff should be focused on improving patient care, they have been diverted to rearranging deck chairs to little purpose.

These changes are also the opposite of what @wesstreeting promised ie no top down reorganisation of the NHS.

The govt’s organisational changes to the NHS fly in face of Darzi report that said a top-down reorganising was ‘neither necessary nor desirable’.

The list of commitments in NHS 10 year plan is lengthy and for most part welcome. What’s missing is credible approach to implementation to give confidence they will be delivered. Whitehall’s record in delivery not great @wesstreeting @so_says_sally @CMO_England.

as a neutral, I think there is a clear ruling on the Morgan clean out. the problem with the clean is that Morgan don't wrap 🤷🏻‍♂️ . so effectively it is a no-arm clean. with down-ward momentum onto back of neck. please don't argue with me , argue with the footage 😆
