If the Government has its way we will all be volunteers, that way they get to save a fortune! But seriously though this doesn't bode well for David Cameron's Big Society or am I right in thinking that his big idea may be dead in the water in any case? One of the problems lies in the very success of many of these groups. When they do their job too well (Community Health Councils spring to mind as an example) the Gov can't wait to get rid of them as they show up their failings as well as local health services. They become a thorn in their sides. So guess what we change the system. Ummm, sounds rather familiar doesn't it?
