[Margaret Pilkington]

John, there are too many managers on big salaries......these should be whittled down to the minimum. That alone would save vast sums of money.
The NHS should stop dancing to the tunes played by the politicians...get rid of the league tables, they mean nothing in real terms and patients whose clinical condition does not require urgent treatment get it, so that some manager can satisfy government targets.
Make sure that suppliers are giving value for money and if they aren't then the contract for services should be removed.
Put more staff on the front line...where patient contact is the prime concern.
Rocket science?...it isn't.
