Morale maze

Here's one straight from the You Couldn't Make It Up file: "Jeremy Hunt launches urgent inquiry into junior doctors' morale". This is the political equivalent of taking a massive shit in the middle of your living room and then wondering why there's a massive shit in the middle of your living room. Much the same, really, as making swingeing cuts to funding for councils and then wondering why they're having to cut back on services.

(I was going to take this opportunity to link to the petition calling for a vote of no confidence in Hunt, but in the space of less than 24 hours it's already surpassed the 100,000-signature threshold that makes it automatically eligible for discussion in Parliament.)
