Description

Lisa Hampele interviews Chairman of the British Medical Association, Dr John Marks, about the Government’s white paper on the NHS, its failure to address the problem of under-funding, how it will fragment the Health Service, how the Government wants to cut the number of GPs, the pressure being put on managers to accept the proposals, and the small number of doctors in favour. Sound quality very poor (muffled and faint).
