BMA warns of jobless doctors

I think this has to be one of the most perplexing things I have read for some time. Of course the Department of Health has to defend the position but can it really be true that we are now facing closing hosiptals as well as Doctors out of work and yet waiting lists that hardly seem to budge?

The NHS appears to be staggeringly incompetent in almost every aspect bar spending money.
Time to scrap it and start again harnessing the private sector skills and a ruthless purge of the "back office" non jobs including but not limited to ,"all outreach workers",anyone involved in mission statements,most of HR and rename as Personnel with very clearly defined job descriptions.
Medical staff of all grades must be in control not HR and civil servants.
The only target worth having is one of nil waiting time for anything,I know that is almost impossible but it should still be the goal.
Good grief France almost has achieved it and spent rather less money than is now being chucked at the lame duck NHS by Brown and the Scottish bruderbond.
