Championing and informing general practice professionals
You invite comment on Gordon Brown's response to a suggestion that 'Mr Brown should make a statement valuing general practice'.
His response is utterly devoid of a sense that he values general practice and is simply regurgitated spin on Labour policies.
Every word is about what he wants to change. Read the wording carefully, there is not a single word of praise for the current GP service.
An opportunity wasted, I would say, and I can only conclude that our suppositions that he deprecates the service we provide are correct.
Roll on the next general election.
