Steve Barclay

So this is our new health secretary. There isn't much to go on in his wiki entry. He's been an army officer, for all of 5 months. He doesn't seem to be one of the rich privileged upper class Eton/Harrow Bullingdon twats we've become used to from this party. Does he have any previous experience in healthcare services provision? Well no. But on the plus side it's hard to imagine he could be as useless, idiotic and ignorant as the previous incumbent. Give him time. His main problem is going to be contending with the predatory impulse of that NHS nemesis Hunt. If he can stop Hunt from financially raping our health services then I'll be impressed. We shall see.
