Last week I posted on several occasions about the problems being caused by the Government's failure to develop an adequate narrative to fully explain the NHS Reforms. I observed that this omission had now been noted by a wide range of different commentators both inside and outside of the NHS.

A number of people made comments – for which I am very grateful. I generally don't pick up on what people have said – not out of rudeness but because the agenda seems to move on very quickly on to other issues.
