@ProfSteveField@Stephen_P_Dunn@Atul_Gawande Steve, you've been a key player in allowing NHS to be denationalised & increasingly privatised -
@cpeedell@ProfSteveField@Atul_Gawande I've championed NHS services being he best they can be. I'm not ideological. Just want the best. -
@Stephen_P_Dunn@ProfSteveField@Atul_Gawande I meant the other Steve, Stephen! (But I know you don't oppose private involvement in NHS) -
@cpeedell@ProfSteveField I don't oppose good providers. I oppose poor quality providers. I want the best for all our friends & families -
@Stephen_P_Dunn@ProfSteveField If you accept private sector involvement in NHS, then you accept a healthcare market, which wastes £billions

@Atul_Gawande The Administration, i.e. Obama, picks what closes for maximum political effect, e.g. sick kids, vets, etc. Why not the IRS?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
