The link appears to have a restriction on the audience who can access it.

I'll see if I can find a 'public' version.  Not even sure why it's going to a Facebook page.

That seems to be about a blasphemy case in Pakistan.  I'm not sure what it has to do with doctors, money grabbing or not.

Durr.  What's got into me!!

Got completely confused between two threads I started one after the other.

As you may be aware, a number of medics have reacted to Jeremy Hunt's latest rant about them.  The link was to an article by a doctor which was better than any of the other ones I'd seen so far.

Jeremy Hunt reminds me a bit of a minister called John Patton. Whatever happened to him?

Another politician with his foot in his mouth.

I do not think that he was referring to doctors who work in A and E etc, but to GP's surgeons and specialists who most certainly do not.

Not to mention a certain John Prescott.  By the way, did you mean Chris Patten?  Or John Paton (Labour MP for Norwich/Norwich North 1945 - 64)?

He certainly wasn't referring to the doctors and Consultants I've just encountered at Nottingham, Queen's Medical Centre, who are worth every Penny they earn, and more!

Thanks for that, NS.  Had forgotten about this guy - even though he was MP for the adjacent constituency to that in which I lived at the time.
