For three years now, our children have known nothing of school or education. They haven't woken up in the morning to eat breakfast, put on their nice clothes, and take the bus to school. They don't know the meaning of a teacher. Why are they being deprived of their most basic rights? Share and donate for their sake.

“The data is clear: vitamin K saves lives,” he wrote.

As Roy Lilley (NHSManagers.net) points out:
'Patients do not experience separate targets. They experience one NHS.
Success should be measured by whether it becomes easier & faster for patients to move through it'.
This is right on the button; while seeming to offer a strategic handle on the NHS actually targets often distort & compromise the patients' actual experience of health care.
Too often targets are used to obscure a lack of understanding to the real problems!
