Questions raised after former builder used fake CVs to become an NHS boss and make GBP1million | Daily Mail Online

Jon Andrews (or however he decides to spell his name) was a builder who faked his qualifications and ended up the head of Royal Cornwall Hospitals before he got caught. Some people who worked with him at other organisations in the third and health sector said he was competent. However he got done for fraud due to his made up qualifications, and only on appeal hasn't had to pay his NHS salary back because he actually did his job properly.

I bet whoever gave him the job is now absolutely sh*tting themselves. It's against NHS policy to hire someone who can do their job properly...

[original PM]

Yeah although they should do him for fraud.

"Obtaining pecuniary advantage"*, but since he did a good job it would be difficult to prove that.


*Even more difficult since it's been abolished.

Apart from the doctors and nurses, every body else in “management” in NHS is fake with inflated salaries and fake experience and little to no accountability.

You can add councils too to that list.

Watch it SE, think you're turning into atW.

Not until oPM's dentist has confirmed it, he hasn't.
