Harney must be held to account for chaos in health system

POOR Mary Harney – those damned doctors have been ruining it for everyone again as they deliberately vandalise the health service.

She insists the €9.1 million cutbacks at Crumlin Children’s Hospital and the resultant ward and theatre closures, the 8,483 cancelled outpatient appointments, and the pain and suffering inflicted on children are nothing to do with her – how could they be, she’s only the Minister for Health and Children after all?

No, it is all the work of sinister, underhand forces seeking to destroy the system from within.
