The cast majority of patients probably have a satisfactory and unremarkable trip to their local GP. These people are unlikely to be motivated to go online and leave a comment.
Those who are disgruntled, annoyed or dissatisfied will have plenty of motivation to go and air their grievances.
Eventually you end up with a forum full of complaints and everyone looks bad.

According to the article the only difference between this proposal and the current CRB checks is that they will also hold data of your current job.
Unless I'm missing something, there is no real story here, people who work with, or even close to kids, need to have a CRB check and it has to be paid for. I'm not seeing much different here.
From what I've seen of Firefox 3 beta the differences are pretty minimal. This is just a well timed publicity stunt jump from 2 to 3. Nicely between IE7 & 8.
Whilst I'm sinical I will still promote the day a bit because it's a great browser and a lot of people would be happier using it over IE.
Paris because she uses Firefox :)
