Tentative Diagnosis

Dr Sarah Wollaston, the Conservative chair of the parliamentary select committee on health, appears to have lost sight of her party's ideals. She appears to believe that the Secretary of State for Health and News Corporation should have some sort of interest in public health; an obligation legislated away during the last parliament by Twizzler Lansley and his Liberal Democrat enablers. She appears to believe that the Conservative Party is vandalising and privatising the NHS in order to improve the nation's health, when the very appointment of creatures like Lansley and Hunt to the relevant ministry indicates rather clearly that her Bullingdon bosses' priorities lie somewhat in the region of elsewhere. She appears to believe that a Murdoch drone and Bullingdon appointee should treat the instruments of public accountability with something other than casual contempt. She even seems to think that a public health service should be concerned with improving the nation's diet, rather than fattening up the gullible for profit. As always, it pains me to be uncharitable; but I wonder if Dr Sarah Wollaston is in the wrong party, or the wrong profession; or if, alternatively, she is simply the thickest GP in the House of Expenses Claimants after Liam Fox?
