Perhaps true, but it rings a bit hollow with the whole Mandelson affair happening right now.

And privatisation certainly isn’t going to bring a more open, accountable culture.

He is 100% right but that’s partly because whenever failures come out the government expect people to be sacked, usually the leaders of that organisation.

As a result people close this stuff down out of sheer self interest and survival. Until you change the culture nothing will change

Completely true. The NHS have flat out refused to give full and frank public feedback on Wes Streeting for example.

How long ago were you defending/covering for the traitor Peter Mandelson?

All Streeting, Mandelson and Streeting care about is themselves.

The country could burn and they would be rewarded by a financial creep or oligarch.

Ignoring the fact that the ironymeter has exploded over a politician saying someone else has a cover-up culture, we do need a way of protecting whistleblowers in the NHS. As it stands a whistleblower is all too easily forced out of their trust and then the profession once word spreads over their actions. Having a way of anonymously reporting issues would go a long way to encouraging people to call out bad practice again.
