The House Republican majority should refuse to fund the expansion of the IRS necessary to manage Obamacare. Without that funding, and hiring thousands of additional agents, the IRS cannot even begin to manage Obamacare. President Obama may throw a fit. He may refuse to sign funding bills to keep the federal government open. No matter. Let him close his government down if he wants. Nobody wants the IRS playing political games with their health care and health records, like it did with the constitutional rights to freedom of speech and Equal Protection of Tea Party and conservative organizations. Contribute to the Republican Party? Attend a Tea Party protest? Good luck getting your Obamacare health insurance tax credit application approved.

The £211,000-a-year official had been subjected to weeks of attack from some newspapers – the Daily Mail being the most virulent, dubbing him &quot;the man with no shame&quot; – following publication of the Francis report, which was highly critical of care at the Stafford hospital for four years from 2005. Nicholson was briefly head of the local strategic health authority when the first serious concerns about Mid Staffs emerged, although he was not directly criticised. Campaigners and hostile newspapers cited that brief tenure, though, to say he should have resigned &quot;long ago&quot;.
