The NHS survived this year because its staff absorbed the consequences of decisions they did not make and chaos they did not create. The blunt message from this year is the NHS is led by someone who isn’t clever enough, experienced enough and is too cocky by half. Potentially, the NHS slip-sliding into failure creates an incentive for Streeting to launch a leadership bid in 2026... so that his political legacy does not amount to several years of catastrophe at the NHS. As much as we can’t have another year of him in the NHS... we can't have him anywhere near Downing Street.
