The Times' Minette Marrin gets it right on the money below. A thought-provoking article of some urgency for 2010!

A very Happy New Year to usefulness, enlightenment, creativity, forward-thinking, independence and small government!

"Drop pre-emptive schemes (box ticking) and self-auditing and the entire equality agenda. Rely instead on rigorous, independent, unannounced inspection and sack everyone who has performed badly. Stop ticking. Ignore those forms. A top oncologist and a top primary head teacher both told me that's what they do, knowing they (like their staff) are too useful to sack. How about some passive resistance?"
Hurrah!!!!!!!!!! Let's go for it!!!!!

What should have been a good little article on the nonsense we need to stop ended up descending into petty spiteful vitriol that made me feel about here the way she feels about Harriet Harmon.
