Dr Taylor to launch National Health Action party (From Kidderminster Shuttle)

All this will do is split the vote and let the anti NHS party Conservatives back in. More evidence of the infantilisation of British politics.

Actually IMO it shows a maturity of politics as people are prepared to think beyond the present charade, presented by the traditional political groupings. Something that can happen when the community isn't patronised but genuinely listened to. Hopefully a level of engagement that politicians have recognised, locally in the creation of the Kidderminster Hospital Alliance.

So I assume Health Concern will wrap up and throw their support at this new party?

Otherwise, as said above, it will split the vote in Wyre Forest.

I think it is a good idea to get an NHS party across the country (although I doubt it will get as far as HC in 2001/2005) as most people in 2015 surely will be voting for Lab/Tory to ensure we don'y get another disastrous coalition.

I'm afraid it shows how infantile British political discourse has become. It looks like the British equivalent of the Tea Party - where America goes Britain usually follows. The Tea Party was set up for the same reasons - disillusion with main stream politics, a populist appeal to 'the people' (as if the people are all good and are always right) and fronted by 'normal' people. Consequence - they came a whisper to car crashing the most powerful economy in the world.
The Kidderminster Hospital Alliance is all very well but it concerns only one issue and an issue that they all agree on. What happens the rest of the time when everyone has a different opinion? If the NHS party came to power where would it stand on the fundamental economic question of the age - cuts? Everyone wants a different approach, nobody wants their interests to be cut but someone elses instead. What happens then when you've 'listened' to the people? It's run into a brick wall already.
The most ludicrous thing about this whole concept is that the NHS is run on Socialist lines therefore I presume it wants to implement Socialism? (Or Communism as some people see the terms as interchangeable). So what we'll have is, if Health Concern is to support it, is Communism being implemented by Tories (80% of Health Concern are disaffected Tories). It's hilarious. What more evidence needed of the infantilisation of the UK is there?
Britain is an apathetic country, disliking politics & politicians. By handing political power to people uninterested in politics is like handing a scalpel to a surgeon without any knowledge of medicine (see Tea Party again).

Does this mean Dr Taylor's in 2 parties then?

looks like it.
