It is astonishing and nauseating for the GMSC negotiators to claim that
they had intended to get tough all along, only they were waiting for
all the facts.
Let me remind them and you that with all the facts known in early
March, the first voice of opposition was raised on this robust forum
on 5 March 1998 in a message by me entitled 'Shotgun marriage'.
Two days later, on 7 March 1998, the first 'call to arms' of
opposition to PCGs was raised, again on this forum, in my message
entitled 'Press Release: DFI'.
That call to arms was later published in 'DOCTOR' and an avalanche of
opposition was unleashed.
It took the GMSC 2 months since the launch of DFI to begin to be in
tune with the rank and file.
During that time, the GMSC has sought to discredit and rubbish the
brave voices of dissent and opposition until last week maintaing that
it was just a small minority.
To claim that they had intended to get tough on PCGs all along is a
distortion of the facts.
I pay tribute to all those in DFI who stood up in the early days.
Their efforts shall not go unrecognised by anybody.
Thank you all, in just under 2 months, we have managed to turn the
supertankers of this world. Not by shouting and bangging tables, but
with brave, reasoned and rational arguments.
Time shall tell what future UK primary care has.
Ahmad
