The head of the health watchdog says the NHS in England has a culture that "doesn't listen" and he has been "shocked" by behaviour he has seen.

Care Quality Commission chairman David Prior said a rift between managers and clinicians was jeopardising safety and blocking improvements in care.

He said the NHS could go bust without "serious change" and called for more competition to drive up standards.

The government said it was trying to eradicate poor care and back openness.
