Sam Galbraith, Scotlands Labour health minister, has promised that doctors and nurses and not inept, spotty, LSE (London School of Economics) graduates will have the last word in many changes coming to Scotlands health care NHS infrastructure.

This is to be praised,at last, something Labour is being realistic about (see Labours NHS)

Of course, doctors can say all they want and health boards can channel resources, but if London cuts Scottish funding where will it leave the over-paying Scottish tax payer?
