The Council may not like it,but Lord Hunt is right

摘要

I was intrigued to read your leading article,"Engage the silent majority"(PJ,26 May,p596),in which you claim that Lord Hunt has achieved something that no one else has done in living memory:he has united the profession.Read on and the point is made that the "silent majority"has not spoken and needs to be asked.So is your claim perhaps misleading?The truth is that Lord Hunt has managed to unite the pharmacy "establishment"(Officers and members of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's Council)against what they are calling Government "interference"- hardly a uniting of the profession as you suggest.Most member's might be happy with Lord Hunt's sensible approach;The Journal just does not know.
