Did you expect it to be reassuring?
Did Lefroy expect it to be reassuring?
At least he'll be able to claim in his next self-aggrandizing email newsletter that he's doing something.

I was surprised to see Lefroy make an appearance and discuss this issue at all given his low profile approach taken in the past. There is usually some attempt at spin by PM to placate MP’s worries about issues raised but not on this occasion. Just a comment about leaving it to clinical groups and locals to sort out the best solutions.

Because that's been so successful up to now..Just a comment about leaving it to clinical groups and locals to sort out the best solutions.

Lefroy's PMQ's question in full.
Jeremy said: "The people of Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent are again being confronted with the possible loss of emergency services in Stafford or Burton, when our acute hospitals are constantly under intense pressure.
"Does the Prime Minister agree with me, our hon. Friend the Member for Burton (Andrew Griffiths) and other local MPs that closing A&Es is no way to deal with increased real—not imagined—need?"
Responding, Prime Minister Theresa May said: "The important issue is the level of service that is available to people in any particular local area. That is why the sustainability and transformation plans that are being considered and have been published are being taken into account and being considered at a local level, so that local clinicians and local people will be able to agree what is best in their particular area."
Speaking after the exchange, Jeremy said: "While there are some good common sense proposals in the STP, it is quite clear from the demand and the history in Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire that all three A&E sites at Stoke, Stafford and Burton are required. It is therefore essential that the STP team and the NHS rule this proposal out at the earliest opportunity. It will give my constituents greater confidence in the ability of the STP to make positive changes if this unworkable proposal - whether it affects Burton or Stafford is dropped."

Adult nappies would be more appropriate and better able to cope with the flow that comes from our honourable ladies and gentlemen.
Better buy in bulk.

Has he claimed sole responsibility for saving Beaconside Leisure for the good of all Staffordians in the face of insurmountable odds yet?
