For those confused, it's a British politician, not American. The tories spent far too long in power trying to cripple the NHS, without being too blatant about it. They wanted to introduce a more American style system. Unfortunately for them, a lot of the NHS staff wouldn't play ball. It's been hell on the actual staff, but the NHS refused to break.
