We, the PCT planned from the beginning that it would not deliver what Lansley was promising - we all knew that playing cards would not be given the freedom of the launch, he said, not bureaucracy be reduced and the Ministry of Health will continue to micro-manage the service.

also predicted that, despite their best intentions, doctors would not be able to maintain the level of participation expected of them. We are already seeing a significant number of doctors to withdraw or reduce their participation in games of cards and the bill has not yet been approved. At the end of the day can not be both a GP and patients to see a Commissioner of the clinical experience of strategic decisions to provide health services to the population of the GCC.

I do not understand is why there has been no legal challenge of it all - we all know that there was no mandate for the bill, as Cameron n ' had not even read it before signing, but that takes place anyway without royal assent.

dcarter may wonder whether Alan Milburn, would actually be "government of national unity figure" Times suggests that it may be . And, as an adviser to Bridgepoint, a private equity group, would not have a conflict of interest in a bill that opens the NHS to private competitors?

Bridgepoint
, moreover, has invested over 1 billion pounds sterling in the UK private health companies.

Thank you. Keep your comments and tweets next.

exactly what the financial risks of the proposed NHS shake? The government has developed a "risk register" - but not publish it. As my colleague

Denis Campbell

reports below, there is now increasing pressure to make it released.

Unison, the union of health, which represents the majority of NHS staff than any other union, has today joined the chorus of those demanding that ministers to publish the register of risks - Department of Public Health Assessment of risks posed by the reorganization of the coalition of the NHS.

Christina McAnea , head of the union of health, said his colleagues need to see the document before returning the review of health care and office of the House of Lords tomorrow. The DH has appealed the

decision the Information Commissioner last November that the public interest means that you must publish it.

"The government must be open and honest to be published by the risk register is said to contain damning revelations about Bill - .. The costs of exposure to risk spiraling out of control, making it inaccessible to the NHS, as private companies diverting profits, "said McAnea." GPS is also said that neither ready nor willing to take the part of lion of the health budget. "

McAnea comments on the dangers of shaking apparently identified in the risk register is based on alleged past leaks of the contents that appeared last week in Eoin Clarke is the green benches blog about politics Westminster, and also on the blog yesterday by nhsmanagers.net

Roy Lilley

, a former chairman of the NHS mental health trust and the arch-critic of the bill .

According to Clarke: "The head of the warning in the report is that reforms Lansley will cause increased costs of healthcare and the NHS as unaffordable private speculators siphon off money for your best interest to report. specifically warns that doctors do not have the experience or skills to effectively manage costs. "

Last month, the

British Medical Association

Royal College of Nursing and Academy of Royal Medical Colleges launched a joint appeal to the Secretary of Health Andrew Lansley

asking him to publish the register risk.

Critics say it is an outrage

MPs debate constitutional laws that fundamentally change the NHS, while being denied full information about the dangers of the bill.

But, despite growing calls for the publication, the Department will not release until the first, not his call. DH ministers and spokespersons claim that set a healthy precedent for future risk assessment of government policy to publish an NHS now.

They gave every impression of wanting to keep a record some believed could be political dynamite in secret at least until the Bill completed its parliamentary phase, which can be until April or May.

So much so that course content - dynamite or another -. Come too late to change things

future. In his blog, Campbell wrote:

Wow! Going back to do something. First, a newspaper columnist is largely favorable to the government's thrust of Cameron. Second, he clearly found strong opposition within the government, not just liberal Democrats. But when people talk to ministers and killed, which is something. As for Alan Milburn as minister in the Lords, I have two words about it - Alan, not (I think it's a runner.)

When David Cameron has announced a "pause", one of the strangest moments of our constitutional history, I guess they would then be the number 10 with weight control, and Mr Lansley. But what was already a dog's dinner is now something that even a dog would not touch. They are finished with the worst of all worlds, with some of the measures already implemented efficiently, and cost a lot, and doctors angry and confused.

met in a football on Sunday, a doctor who said reading could not understand what they were supposed to do now. I found another one yesterday when I went to get more drugs for that bloody chest infection that will not go away, and found another doctor saying that frustration can not understand why, when everyone can see the next car accident, Cameron, Osborne and plow Lansley just how the pile-up becomes more and more.

My GP football said that the only people who support the bill were those who saw the opportunity to expand their private practices. But now, even supporters medical profession abandoned Lansley

Campbell adds:

If Rachel Sylvester conference came from the bottom of Cameronland, the fundamental complaint is emotional intelligence questionining Lansley. Cameron has over him, and he will be looking for a way out. If not, is foolish.

But Lansley is set up as the scapegoat, remember this ... Cameron, who was told there would be a top-down reorganization of the NHS, and Cameron, who said that there would be cuts. The cuts are already underway. Surgery, I visited yesterday has lost its support and consulting service of alcohol. Mental health units in my area have been halved. Waiting times across the country are increasing. Number of nurses are down. For each day in many ways, the promise of Cameron breaks. The NHS has improved under Labour. Done. It's getting worse with the Conservatives. Done.

As with any reorganization from top to bottom "it is a reorganization from top to bottom as it is. If this bill passes through the NHS is no longer the NHS as learn. This is a step Cameron regret. It is however, could be the end of it.

1:31 p.m.: This is a brilliant analysis and very funny, Andrew Lansley, the stay or go to a debate

Andy Cowper

, who blogs about health policy Insight.

Cowper May Lansley suspicion "of wood for some time", but argues that the output is inevitable:

career of Mr Lansley was done in slow motion since the publication of its White Paper announced the same from top to bottom in the NHS reorganization of the coalition agreement explicitly ruled out.

can not end today or even this week. The health policy community is well familiar with the concept great Robert Evans of "zombie health care: discredited ideas that will not die" Mr Lansley shows what happens when you become Minister of Foreign Affairs

Cowper is scathing about the idea of ??Blair's former health secretary

Alan Milburn

reprise his most famous role in the coalition government :

Someone is smoking something serious to even consider that. Milburn, of course, hated, Gordon Brown, (hence the infamous strategy of "hell" on his bill of health equity and social protection in 2003, which created the foundation trusts), but is basically a Labour tribalist. Milburn accepts a title of nobility, such as the Coalition dancing naked in Whitehall. It is only in the dreams of a very rare

If Lansley said No10 adviser should be removed and fired, Cameron said first. If the rumor is for health, Alan Milburn, Cameron began.

But ianBirrell

speechwriter for former Prime Minister, the tweets:

I said that the suggestion of Alan Milburn, may return as Minister of Health, is a non-starter. "No chance," said No source 10. Shame ...

Benedict Brogan

in telegraphic reports that Cameron and Clegg Lansley met yesterday and "agreed to advance." He writes:

Health Secretary be authorized to continue the reform, despite concerns about the way he has treated.

He cites a number of agents 10:

"We shed blood in this issue because we believe in this bill. There is no appetite for compromise. We had a listening exercise, c ' Now is the time to move on. Government to stand firm. "

Blogger Iain Martin Lansley dubs "the latest fall guy" (former banker

Fred Goodwin

victim was last week):

There are conflicting signals about the intentions of Prime Minister really are. Someone told me plugged Lansley last week was "a dead man walking", another day a little more than Cameron would stay with him while he is still, after all, feels loyalty to him. He does not want to go for a major overhaul, unless absolutely necessary.

Martin Beckford , the editor of Social Affairs Telegraph (@ martinbeckford) tweets:

stray back to health, why ditch WD Lansley and Bill the Government now? Reforms have been underway for a year now and WD is difficult and expensive to undo v

But if Lansley is safe
