Nice try, Ant. To repeat the headline and first sentence of the Independent
story:

"Neglectful' NHS told dying woman to take laxatives
By Jeremy Laurance, Health Editor
Published: 13 April 2007

"A 36-year-old mother of four died in agony as a result of "gross" errors
by NHS staff made on two separate occasions, an inquest found."

Last time I looked, NHS means Britain's National Health Service, a socialized
system of government health care. 

Or perhaps I should no longer believe Jos Laycock that the Independent is
an example of professional, i.e., accurate journalism?
