Sometimes a situation is interesting when it’s evolving. You’ve been watching it for some time, wondering where the chips are going to fall; who’s going to speak up, who’s going to take a gamble and say the thing that’s politically risky, but morally right. I’m amazed, and glad, to say that today I’ll be writing about the BMA, and how the largest medical trade union in the UK is starting to hold the medical establishment to account. And the issue they are using to push back on is the acceleration of non-doctors taking on roles in the NHS that traditionally would have been provided to patients by doctors.
