The doctor who lost her patients
Article Abstract:
Dr Helena Daly has had to battle for almost three years against suspension from her position as consultant haematologist at Treliske Hospital in Truro, Cornwall. The hospital has finally admitted that its criticisms of her personal conduct, which included claims that she was rude to colleagues, were completely unfounded, but she has not received her job back or any apology. She believes that she has suffered particular problems because she is one of only a few women consultants in the UK.

First the docks, now Ford: how Liverpool lost it
Article Abstract:
The city of Liverpool, England, became a key manufacturing centre for the car industry in the 1960s and 1970s. However, manufacturers have begun scaling down their operations there recently, and the car industry in the region now employs only 5,000 people. The city was much more prosperous in the early 1960s than it is now, and this situation is set to deteriorate further. Liverpool has good infrastructure, but seems to lack firm political leadership.

UK has lost competitive edge, says Carsberg
Article Abstract:
UK competition policy is not effective enough, according to Sir Bryan Carsberg, Director General of Fair Trading. The country seems to have lost enthusiasm for making changes, and is being overtaken by countries such as Sweden, Spain and Italy, where developments in competition policy are much more positive. He has been calling for a long time for a 'prohibition' approach to restrictive agreements.
