BMA have passed a no confidence motion in Hunt the .unt. Will he be bovvered?

No, he was more under the cosh during the Leveson inquiry so he has had worse.

However he has not set the world on fire since replacing the hopeless Lansley. 2 years away from an election it is looking harder and harder for the Tories to put a credible line to the voters about their health reforms. Presumably they will try an attack along the lines of: the NHS was broken and failing under Labour, we have taken the tough decisions to let medical professionals - who know best - run the service, rather than bureaucrats in Whitehall.

I agree.
Also, whenever a question about an NHS failing comes up, Hunt is clever enough to ensure he doesn't have to answer any questions about what HE is going to do about it, nope, the ball always remains in the NHS's court.
He always points at the NHS's blotted copybook rather than his own department's lack of oversight ... and I'm guessing that this is so that if/when he does do/announce anything, he'll look like he's saving the NHS from itself.

Hunt has absolutely no legal requirement to accept responsibility for anything. Tucked away in the NHS bill was a little piece of legislation that relieves the Health Secretary, his ministers and even the DoH of any responsibility for what happens in the NHS. It is all the fault of doctors, nurses, CCGs etc.

Aaah, yes of course, I forgot about that.
They can interfere to their heart's content but can't be blamed.

That looks like a Berlusconi clause

What a bitch she is.
