			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-311" title="Dr" src="http://www.nursesforreformblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Dr17-225x300.jpg" alt="Dr" width="81" height="108" />I was at a party yesterday and got in to conversation with someone about the NHS and healthcare provision and funding in the UK.  What was most interesting was that, although they admitted that the NHS was a system that failed people, they still thought that the Government would be able to put things right.  The idea that given government has made such a mess of things should mean that it should stay out of healthcare in the future was not something that had been considered.</p>
<p>With stories such as <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/7806225/Full-public-inquiry-into-Mid-Staffordshire-hospital-scandal-to-be-announced.html" target="_blank">this</a> and <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/7806538/Family-of-woman-who-died-after-999-call-blunder-speak-of-heartbreak.html" target="_blank">this </a>appearing daily in our press isn&#8217;t it time to give the market a chance to put things right?</p>
