Lord Darzi.

 The report by Lord Darzi (aged 64) is in and Keir Starmer, has to decide what to do with it? He is a crossbench peer in the House of Lords and has had an illustrious medical career and currently holds the chair of Paul Hamlyn - Surgery at Imperial College, London. He says in his report that the - 'NHS is broken but not defeated'. As someone who had the privilege of working in child, adult and family psychiatry from 1974 to 1985 - I know how demanding and difficult the profession is. However it's also very rewarding and especially when - you see positive results. 

Nevertheless we now have a new secretary of state for the NHS and Social Care in Wes Streeting - who has the confidence of the prime minister to get on with the job. Let's hope by the end this parliament in 2029 - we have some positive news to report.
