Polly Toynbee writes: “Labour should be protesting loudly about inadequate inspection – and against financiers making a killing outside of the most vulnerable” (Public tolerance has immediately been tested to destruction, 4 June). How simpler that would be if senior Labour figures such as Baroness Morgan passed over opportunities to constitute money outside of the system. The baroness’s position as a board member of Southern Cross makes her position as chair of Ofsted untenable. If she was unable to raise her voice against what was happening to her corporation, how can she be relied on to raise her voice elsewhere? Labour is going through a consultation on the party’s prospect called Refounding Labour. I would suggest one of the principles of refounding Labour should be the assumption that the party is not a grooming academy for boardrooms. If that’s the career the likes of Baroness Morgan and a bevy of ex-ministers desire, they should capture a different route.Cllr Colin ChallenLabour, Scarborough borough councilLabourSouthern Cross HealthcareHealthcare industrySocial careHealth policyHealthPublic services policyguardian.co.uk © Twitter News & Media Limited 2011 | Employ of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
