I've not heard a single person go "You know what, I think that's a good idea" to it.

Taking out and shooting Lansley? of course it's a good idea.
The health reforms however are simply a leftfield way to eventually force in a much more widespread private healthcare system under the radar, so I suspect you'll find a few people who like the idea.

Some parts are a good idea, like getting rid of SHA's
but the claim in that article "We believe that putting the NHS into the hands of health professionals rather than a bunch of bureaucrats is the way forward" is fundermentally wrong, health professionals shouldn't be in control of accounting, IT, logistics, pay, site maintanance, and all the hundreds of other things that actually let them care for patients, that should be done by bureaucrats.

Maybe they should be forced
to do this with government and have all the civil servants removed and the MP's do it all

The trouble with "putting the health service in the hands of health professionals"
is that they don't know how to run a business. The NHS swallows money because it's not run efficiently. It's purpose might not be to make money, but running as if it were would save far more money than constantly reforming it.

Are you suggesting that the NHS is run by Asian men?
If it was Asian women it would be fine as they are much more efficient.
