''Doctors fear GP privatisation''

Of course the BMA are against anything that might disturb the cosy relationship they have whereby GP's get handsome pay rises every year* in exchange for not doing much more work.

* If the figures are to be believed, average GP income has risen from £56,000 in 2001 to £110,000 in 2007.
