I want you to imagine this. Your mother is about to have a knee replacement. Mother can have the operation done by that charming consultant orthopaedic surgeon, Mr Green. Or she can have it done by that charming consultant orthopaedic surgeon, Mr Grey. Mr Grey has nearly five times more experience that Mr Green. Mr Grey has done nearly forty such operations in the past. Mr Green has done seven operations. Who is your mother going to choose? Silly question. The answer is obvious. Actually, the question is even sillier than you think. There is no choice. Mr Grey does not exist. Mr Grey is naught but a distant memory. Mr Grey no longer exists because of the EWTD.
An eminent consultant surgeon writes:
The sad thing about this, as indeed about many European Directives, is that most other European Countries are ignoring it and put the lives of their citizens before a crass misplaced desire to please the EU/unions etc. I wish the Tories could run with it.
Will the Tories run with it? Full details here.
