None of that would preclude him from trying just as hard to get to he bottom of, accept some responsibility for and punish those responsible for the a truly shocking disaster many times the scale of Hillsborough. He won't do that however because at the time the NHS was 'safe' in Labour's hands and they'd much prefer it to be forgotten about.
