Interviewer - Simon Dedman

Former Health Secretary Patricia Hewitt was interviewed in May 2008 for a documentary about Labour's creation and constant re-organisations of Primary Care Trusts in England.

The interview starts with Hewitt addressing the difference in PCT performances before going on to address the argument that Labour has gone full circle with its health reforms. This is followed by a discussion on the lack of health provision by some PCTs and the so-called "post-code lottery" as well as the cost of halving the number of PCTs in terms of redundancies and persistent deficits.

  • She's got some front! I've heard some twoddel in my time but she takes the buiscuit. Patricia Hewitt was, in my view, the most ruthless, uncaring, and dispassionate health secretary in living history whose methods were so destructive to the foundations of the NHS that it will never recover.
