Where is this from?
If we had easier access to GP's 24/7 then the problems at A and E maybe alleviated. I don't know how many doctors surgeries there are in the town but could we not merge some and have 24/7 service or are we expected to only be ill between 8 and 4 five days a week early closing on Wednesday.
Is it actually possible for the Conservatives to do anything more to ensure their candidate in Stafford is not re-elected?
Liebour = people allowed to die through neglect and worse at Stafford Hospital in the name of meeting targets.
Cuntservatives = shut the hospital down and don't provide adequate healthcare therebye leading to further deaths.
Independents = the power to do fcuk all except nominate crooks to high-vis positions.
Really, it makes me feel like crying, but I think I'll settle for opening another bottle of red for now.
Jeremy Lefroy's newsletter says:-Lefroy says he'll stand down if he thought the hospital would close. So why didn't he say that and resign when he first saw the KPMG report?
Jeremy Lefroy's newsletter says:-
KPMG Report and the future of our Hospital
A report by KPMG which was leaked last week contained suggestions about Stafford’s Hospital becoming an elective and rehabilitation centre (ie without an A&E). This proposal is out of date and has not been accepted by the Government or NHS, which continues to implement the TSA plans for our hospital to remain a District General Hospital with A&E.
There have also been media reports quoting people as talking of the possible closure of the hospital. As the NHS England statement published yesterday says: “Any suggestion that there has been consideration given to the closure of Stafford hospital is false and irresponsible.”
I trust that this will reassure constituents who have been understandably concerned about this.
The full NHS England statement is available at: http://www.england.nhs.uk/mids-east/2015/03/05/county-hospital-stafford/

It seems rather hopeful to assume that people will be "reassured", a lot of people will continue to feel both worried and aggrieved.
Who commissioned the KPMG report? Whose money was used to pay for it? Why commission a report and refuse to accept its findings? Why not tell them what they're supposed to find and make it all look a bit better..?
And, who believes anybody any more?
Are they so thick that they couldn't just tell them what to "find"...?KPMG big donor to Cons, so they wouldn't like to offend them by saying the recommendations were crap.
Food for thought ?

Actor Michael Sheen says the core values of the NHS are being undermined. He made his comments on The Andrew Marr Show, saying: "This is beyond party politics. I think that's partly the point.
"There has been a systematic undermining of the core values of the NHS no matter who has been in power."
