Rosie says the Tories cannot be trusted with the NHS
10 Mar 2010
On her blog Rosie Sharpley has criticised both the Tories and "blue Labour" for their policies on the NHS. Rosie has worked in the NHS most of her adult life and sees what's happening first hand. Here's the beginning of her post
"As anyone who knows me will tell you, I am a passionate supporter of the NHS. I absolutely believe in high quality local medical facilities. The NHS has always been incredibly complex but has been made even more so by the "suits" and it is making it very difficult for even experts to know what's going on, let alone the man or woman in the street. Therefore I apologise in advance for the long and detailed post but I hope it helps explain the situation.
In summary
- The ordinary person wants local resources easily accessible. In Woking we have a wonderful community hospital and we need to protect it.
- I have been working on this for a long time
- I have brought the PCT and SCC to task on behalf of local people on many occasions
- The public have a right to a say in how the NHS is run
- No one would have blinked an eye about any of this if I had not made such a nuisance
- The NHS has been ruined by both Labour and Conservatives
- I don't trust any of them and they will try and hide behind the recession and carry on dismantling the NHS out of existence which is what they wanted all along"
