Reforms to the public sector focus on choice. And choice is based on individualism. So choice is the opposite of collectivism right..?
I'm not too sure.
As someone who was born not long before Thatcher came into power I have a core of individualism that i'm pretty unhappy to sweep away. I also think some of the best innovation, change, decisions, things and interesting people are out there on their own. They have not compromised. They have not changed their decision based on others. They are stubborn and obstinate.
I am still holding out for some sort of 'collective-individualism' that would marry these things. In the meantime we'll have to hold every decision about public sector reform on its own merit.. And have a watch of this..
