- Not normally watching TV, this week I am with a client who does, so within 24 hrs I hear about plans to cut the NHS..., T.May's plans to commission a study about racial and social injustice and - a TV-ad for a private insurance for cancer sufferers.. Now, how do these three items make sense together? - someone said, the NHS crisis has been engineered in order to justify privatisation. I am not sure whether this kind of conspiracy theory isn't a bit like magical thinking. Is it not more likely that Jeremy Hunt and Co. believe they are doing the right thing ...without asking fro whom.
And then there is Theresa May - conservative politician with a genuine heart - or wolf in a social justice costume? And the private advertiser certainly shows a good sense of timing..
Encouragingly, I also find: yet another change.org campaign to get one or other cancer patient the drugs they need. This may be where power for the people now shows tender shoots: in such campaigning - democratically conspiring for social change? I hope so.
