Shirley Williams: Lib Dems should take credit for thwarting Lansley

June 13, 2011 11:12 AM

SOS for our NHS• [Jun 13] Shirley Williams writes: LIBERAL Democrats, from our party's grassroots to its leadership, can be proud of the influence we have exerted to change the Government's NHS plans. It is clear now that the proposals that will be taken forward are dramatically different to those originally proposed.

. . [We] can comfort [our]selves with the realisation that one of England's most trusted and best loved public services will now survive as the framework for our health care; the Prime Minister will be able to say with confidence that the NHS is safe in the Coalition's hands.
