	Tuesday 24 August 2010 at 10.30pm on BBC Two Presented by Kirsty Wark Health Secretary Andrew Lansley wants family doctors to decide where the NHS's money is spent as part of the government's plans for a major shake-up of the NHS system in England. But not everyone is happy about the move. The UK's largest public service union, Unison, has launched legal action claiming ministers failed to ask the public if it wanted such fundamental changes in the first place. And a Muscular Dystrophy Campaign study seen by Newsnight found many GPs had no knowledge of muscle-wasting conditions. The charity warns that a move to GP-based commissioning would be disastrous. The Shadow Health Secretary and Labour leadership contender Andy Burnham joins us live. We also have a film from Mark Seddon on the decline of the English elm, which is under threat from a fresh outbreak of Dutch elm disease. Watch out for the specially-commissioned poem dedicated to the elm written and read by Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy. And we'll be asking why President Barack Obama's disapproval rating is higher than his approval rating for the first time in an Ipsos poll. Join Kirsty at 10.30pm on BBC Two.
