Why are whistleblowers being hounded out of the NHS?

NHS bosses are destroying the careers of whistleblowers who stand up to protect patients’ lives, according to an exclusive investigation by The Telegraph. More than 50 doctors and nurses have told the newspaper they have been targeted after raising concerns about upwards of 170 patient deaths and nearly 700 cases of poor care.

Kamal Ahmed and Camilla Tominey are joined on The Daily T by the journalists behind the investigation; Janet Eastham and Gordon Rayner.

Plus, our Political Editor asks Keir Starmer if he's just 'a copycat Blair'?
