A little while ago, a consultant was most miffed by the Cleggeron and a camera crew invading his ward for political advantage. He threw them out.
His actions were correct. Hospitals have enough problems with infections without Cleggeron and their entourage spreading political contagion all over the place.
However, the Trust doesn't see it that way. To the pen-pushers, politics trumps health every time.
The NHS. Working for politics. Not for you.

All he had to do was hit the fire alarm (so long as there was no cctv nearby). A smoker with a cigarette lighter could have set fire to some dressings close to a smoke detector on the same floor (e.g. in a cleaning cupboard). In either case, an evacuation of the building would have been forced (see those politicians run away, terribly fast). The hygiene standards could have been forced upon everyone coming back in after the all-clear. If patients were being evacuated (doesn't always happen immediately - until the cause of alarm is determined), the fire-brigade would be in a position to show no mercy to any politicians or camera crew - a good hosing down is what they deserve anyway.
The lesson: know your building's fire alarm system very thoroughly, you never know when it can come in handy, particularly against a first-class vindictive sh*t like Cameroid.
I doubt the order was passed from Cameron (or his staff), though I'd certainly believe something like this direct from the lips of Blair or Brown or their coterie.
No, I think this is the Trust's doing entirely, and off their own bat.
What a damned disgrace. This needs to be publicised widely.
I don't normally support long-term 'leave' being paid in full but on this occasion the man deserves it.
I'm sure Cameroid didn't say anything like 'make that consultant's life hell'. It's more likely to be like Thomas a Becket and Henry II: "Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?" This also happens to be my pet theory regarding Dr David Kelly, too, with Blair in the Henry II role (obviously).

Exactly. When these pygmies get into power the sycophantic "honours hunters" try to gain kudos every which way. The Bliar/Kelly murder very much as stated.
As soon as I saw the video of the Doc airing his views, like a lot of people, I thought he'd be spending more time away from the wards. I doubt that any whispers were required by Cameron tho.
I think the "management" would want to be seen to do something. They'd think it would make them look good to Cameron and his entourage.
The Dr has skill and value in our society, not Daves version, ours. Of course Dave and his entourage and the hospital management responsible have no value.
sorry, leg-iron, i can't read the link to guido fawkes because my computer crashes into a deep blue screen whenever it tries to load up his filthy subsidized site - i guess my system must be allergic to conceited conservative clap-trap. in any case, i've never much fancied visiting his blog since the time i helped him get a foothold in the alexa stats-table and never received a penny for doing so - the dirty shitty crook.
I don't think anyone with half a brain buys into this 'roll your sleeves up and save our patients from MRSA' lie that is repeatably being slapped upon us. Do they think we're stupid? Well, obviously...

i heard that spark up vanished in the kent-brixton-tottenham "hackerny" triangle
scrapping the nhs isn't the problem (it's a dysfunctional dinosaur waiting to be decommissioned), the real problem is that cameron is not going to refund hard-working people who, over many years, have paid into the pot "for a rainy day" and who are now going to be left stranded without a functioning general hospital in their area. also, by increasing taxes, instead of reducing them, cameron is even arrogantly precluding the possibility of common people purchasing future private health care (from corporate conservative friends who will have been given first bite of the clinical cherry-pickings at the social asset-stripping party). care? no he doesn't - provided there's enough dosh in the kitty to keep him, along with all his westminster and european chums, in nonsy public jobs for as long as it takes to rob this continent, the middle-east, and africa. prick.
I know the Cleggeron had nothing to do with this. It would have been entirely due to the knee-jerk paranoia of the trust. 'Eek! Funding in danger! Be seen to do something!'
However, how many of the public even know the faceless trusts exist? The Cleggeron get booted, the man who booted them gets dumped, and simple minds reach simple conclusions.
The Cleggeron will get the blame and now it's in the nationals, there is not a damn thing they can do about it.
Fun, isn't it?
Spark up - it's in the Mail now.
£60aweek - no, the shirtsleeves thing is rubbish but it's cheaper than actually paying for real cleaning materials and staff. None of those hospital acquired infections should exist and all it would take is proper deep cleaning and properly enforced hygeine.
But the admin can't pay for that and still have new carpets in their offices. Priorities.
If you live in a grubby part of Manchester with scrubland behind your house and a masked gang turn up at midnight and try to batter their way in, they know you're in there and they have not come to collect donations to the local soup kitchen, and there is a woman in the house, well, let your imagination tick slowly into action and what would you be thinking?
set the woman on them?
