Memoirs of Tony Blair

Telegraph: Reviews the forthcoming memoirs of Tony Blair. The one question Mr Blair must answer is why he didn’t sack Gordon Brown when Brown blocked him on his domestic reforms, and when he had the chance after 2005 General Election he didn’t move Brown or sack him. This will be the test of the Blair memoirs, will he be as honest as Lord Mandelson.

NHS Direct in England = OUT

BBC News: Reports that NHS Direct in England is to be scrapped due to public spending cuts, the Coalition is going with a cheaper version of the service. Although the NHS has been ring fenced by the Coalition Government it is still looking for reforms that will make the NHS more efficient and cheaper, lets be honest folks it’s the fault of Labour, they threw money in the good times but didn’t keep any money in the bank for the cold rainy days of Austerity UK.
