I'm pretty sure this photo once resided in the Shrewsbury Arms, or at least one very similar.
It's a print, there may be several copies. It probably constitutes "possession of information likely to be of use to a terrorist"....

Labour steps back from Stafford hospital claims

Stafford's hospital

Comments (0)
Labour has stepped back from claims by Stafford parliamentary candidate Kate Godfrey that health spokesman Andy Burnham has pledged full restoration of A&E and maternity services in Stafford

In a press release issued today Ms Godfrey said the Labour plan was "fully costed and worked out, and includes a commitment to the underpinning services – such as acute care and anaesthetics, which are a legal requirement of formal hospital restoration."

"Andy Burnham's commitment will now be splashed on 10,000 emergency leaflets delivered across Stafford overnight," she said.

But in a statement issued to the Newsletter this afternoon the shadow health secretary only went as far as promising a "full clinical review" on the future of the hospital

Andy Burnham said "I have always been committed to Stafford Hospital and I want to make sure that Stafford has a safe and sustainable hospital with a full range of services. After all that they've been through, it's what the people of Stafford deserve. If I become the Secretary of State after the election, I will establish a full clinical review so that we can make progress on this matter."

Labour insiders said there appeared to have been "some misunderstanding" in Ms Godfrey's campaign office of remarks by Mr Burnham about the hospital on Radio Stoke this morning.

It is understood the party is in the process of contacting her campaign to ensure that any new leaflets have the exact facts.

In her original press release Ms Godfrey said "It meant so much to us … when Andy backed our plan to restore Stafford Hospital. It won't be easy, and it won't be overnight, but if Labour are given a mandate here, we'll be working locally to restore the hospital as the best early Christmas present Stafford patients could hope to receive.

"Labour's pledge to Stafford is exceptional, and is based on the belief that our town and patients merit a full District and General Hospital."

National Health Action Party candidate Karen Howell described the press release as a "sham" announcement.

"The people of Stafford have been through enough; they deserve better," she said.

"Where have Labour been in the last three and a half years when campaigners like myself have been fighting hard for these services?

"The events at Mid Staffs Hospital happened on Labour's watch. Now they expect voters to trust them."
