This is what #nigelcrisp discovered rather painfully in the middle 2000s and why later on #andyburnham told #nhs commissioners to look first at public providers .

@ChrisMayLA6

This is what happens when they listen to #alanmilburn rather than #nigelcrisp - the official who had to deal with the consequences of #alanmilburn for the #nhs long after #milburn had left government. Sadly I find myself reminded of the comment about the restored Bourbon monarchy in France two centuries ago 'They have forgotten nothing and learned nothing' !
