Eve Turner Secretary – Ealing Save our NHS has sent out a letter containing the following: Andy Burnham, Labour Shadow Health Secretary - ‘A Labour Government will immediately halt further changes to the NHS in NW London’ ‘One of the biggest failures of this Government has been the chaotic and damaging NHS closures in north west London. It’s no surprise waiting times are some of the worst in the country – remaining A&Es have been put under intolerable pressure, simply unable to absorb any more pressure. ‘With the planned review and downgrading of Ealing and Charing Cross, things could get even worse under the Tories, putting patient safety further at risk. ‘A Labour government will call an immediate halt to further changes to the NHS in north west London. We will launch a new clinical review that properly takes the views of local patients on board and prevents a full blown crisis developing across London’s hospitals. Patients in London simply can’t afford five more years of Tory hospital closures.’ |
