    Abstract This Perspective argues that the NHS in the UK is facing a critical 'tipping point' which means that its very survival is at stake. The article considers the political responses to this crisis-(briefly) from the Conservative government; (briefly) from the 'anti-NHS' Right in politics; (briefly) from the 'centre' in politics in the form of the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change; and (in depth) from the left-of-centre, the Labour Party. Labour is likely to form the next government, which is why its approach (in terms of both political strategy and the substance of health policy) is considered in depth. It is argued that Labour's approach, derived from an understandable desire by leader Sir Keir Starmer to disown its 'unelectable' recent past, is currently inadequate for the task of putting the NHS on a secure footing for the future.

    Abstract In the article, 'Learning Lessons from the Covid-19 Pandemic', Powell (2022) rightly implies that there is a profusion of confusion in the 'industry' which has grown up around lesson-learning from the pandemic. His contribution sets out a helpful framework for classifying or making attempts at lesson-learning. He combines the tripartite classification of inadequate approaches to policy-learning and policy transfer developed 30 years ago by Dolowitz and Marsh ('uninformed-incomplete-inappropriate'), which he inverts to produce a classification of approaches which are informed, complete and appropriate, with the framework of 'outcome-mechanism-context' from realistic evaluation. (I use the term realistic rather than realist, as the latter implies an epistemological stance as opposed to what was intended, which is that evaluation takes account of complexity in a realistic manner.) This produces a classification, and possibly an 'ideal type', of informed outcomes, complete mechanisms and appropriate context. Powell rightly implies that no overall conclusion is available from the literature reviewed. He does however imply that different approaches may work in different settings. This is true in one sense but misleading in another. This commentary argues that such 'relativism' is not only dangerous in practice but mistaken in theory.

    Abstract The new White Paper, Integration and Innovation, prefiguring a Health and Social Care Bill for England, means that the NHS structure in England will have come full circle in the last 32 years, since the Thatcher government began in 1989 to implement the reforms announced that year in the White Paper, Working for Patients (incidentally without waiting for parliamentary approval, which came in 1990). This will be denied by some, who will depict the 'new' integration as only being possible as a result of learning during the various phases of reform over the last 30 years. This is a fallacious teleology. It is argued here that, while the 'old' NHS of the 1980s (of course) required improvement, the persistent 'reforms' of the last 30 years or so have been based on political fads which have been both hugely expensive and, in the end, transitory and self-defeating.

    Abstract Background: The UK government's reckless and incompetent response to Covid-19 has produced an outcome which is amongst the worst in the world, and arguably the worst in terms of deaths per 100,000 population of major countries (especially when one measures mortality from Covid in terms of cause of death on the death certificate, rather than the UK government's own measure-death of a tested individual within 28 days of testing). This article updates my initial analysis in this journal over a year ago, and traces the negligent and shambolic policy-making, and supine official scientific advice, which has led to such a dismal outcome.
    Methods: It does so by examining the policies and approach of the UK government from the begining of the pandemic (in UK terms, January 2020) up to June 2021. All relevant declarations, speeches, decisions, public interviews and policies were noted on a daily basis, examined and critically assessed-along with daily data and information over the whole period on Covid's threat to, and spread across, the UK.
    Conclusions: On three successive occasions, Boris Johnson and his compliant Ministers acted too late and too weakly to prevent avoidable death and illness. At the time of writing the vaccination programme in the UK has been destabilised by the government-yet again-having failed to secure its borders, this time against the Delta variant (Indian mutation) of the virus. Overall, in terms of border control, quarantine, testing, tracing, isolation and timely and enforced lockdown, the government put short-term, superficial considerations above coherent strategy. It dressed up its incompetence as a superficial libertarianism and defence of the economy, but thereby managed to achieve the worst of all worlds in terms of three egregious failures-appalling health outcomes; (ironically) worse economic damage than countries which took draconian action; and (also ironically) continually recurring restrictions as a result of earlier failure to take strong action to suppress Covid and keep it at bay. Public reaction in England (unlike in Scotland and Wales) to the Johnson government's shenanigans has not been commensurate with that government's level of failure, which sadly reflects a debasement of the political culture in England.
