Why is everyone so anti progress?

Honestly, nothing much of value in that comment, just a long winded version of “labour=Tories=republicans=MAGA so Labour bad”
Despite how a lot of articles about this are worded, this isn’t just another tory-esque NHS cut. NHS England is an independent governing body for the NHS created by the Tories about a decade ago. It’s job was effectively to delegate responsibility for NHS management decisions away from the government.
So whether this ends up helping or harming the NHS will basically come down to how smoothly the important roles from NHS England can be covered by the civil service, and how well the health secretary is able to utilise the more direct control over the NHS that he’ll inherit.

I’m flattered 😆
I also thought the whole sacking of 30K government workers seemed a trumpian or muskian action, and its been obvious for a long time that private healthcare has been boosted and touted as a valid choice, while the NHS has festered and fallen apart - which was a political choice. Now productivity is effected and the red tories are going after the disabled rather than fixing the NHS so that the post covid populace might be healthy enough to work.
From what I have heard, this organisation was a bloated and cumbersome bureaucracy. It attempted to bring caregivers into the decision-making processes, but ignored the fact that doctors and nurses didn’t want to sit in lots of meetings instead of caring for patients.
I listened to a phone in where a nurse with decades of experience mentioned meetings of up to 40 people, where only five or six attendees were needed. And that at one point she had eight levels of management above her.
Party for the workers /s
The working class inherently benefits from a stronger NHS. I’m not sure if these changes are the right ones but at least they’re trying something.
NHS England was put in by the Tories in 2012 to cripple the NHS. It should never have existed and it’s misleading to label the removal of this superfluous body as an attack on the NHS. Labour should have been clearer in their messaging about what it is that they’re getting rid of. This is more like excising a tumour than chopping off a limb.
Indeed, I’ve seen a lot of people thinking this is doctors/nurses/other hospital staff getting cut, rather than an arms-length administrative/bureaucratic body
