Have been following all the messages with regards to the dreaded BUPA tender process and would like to add my bit but I have failed miserably at being able to register.

In case i can't get registered on time put out a plea for all Physios north of London to get involved as most of the comments come from people in the South. I agree with all I am hearing, and have been educated on quite a few points, especially with the long term effects and the erosion of our professional autonomy, therefore I feel strongly that we should go the way the Ophthalmologist's did. However, if this information is not reaching enough people then I fear there will be alot of Physios signing up to this deal without understanding its full impact. How can we be assured of that with such little time left? Lets all move to Guernsey!
