Health politics and policy - What's wrong and what needs to change Dr Alex Scott-Samuel, University of Liverpool 1-2 p.m. Rooms GO4/O5 Public Health Building University of Birmingham Edgbaston Campus (near University station) Abstract: while there are limited signs that the Brown government wishes to adopt socially cohesive values and public sector provision of health services, most of the drivers of increasing health inequality and of wasteful, divisive health care introduced by Blair remain in place. This presentation will outline the current situation and summarise what needs to happen if England is again to espouse health and equity in a society worthy of that name.
