More than 50,000 NHS jobs will be lost because of government spending cuts, a new anti-cuts campaign group says.

Trades Union Congress-backed False Economy said its study showed that NHS trusts were planning to cut 53,000 staff over the next five years - more than double previous union estimates.

I wish I could predict what the economy is going to do in the next five years....I could make a killing.

I truly wish it were managers and non-clinical useless staff who were going to be dismissed but the truth of the matter is clinical staff will be laid off, the remainder under greater duress. The end point is that patients will suffer.
