Accident and Emergency Unit at the Princess Royal - Tory betrayal !!
September 1, 2005 6:05 PM
Serena Tierney has campaigned ever since it was first suggested that this unit might be closed or downgraded. Lib Dems believe that Mid Sussex needs a fully functional A & E unit at the PRH, not a low-grade injuries only unit. To be fair, before the election, the Tories were saying the same. Yet look at what they are saying now: "Why I agree PRH surgery switch was the right move". What sort of behaviour is this? One thing before the election, and then change of heart immediately after, when the electorate cannot sling him out. This is just the sort of behaviour that gets all politicians a bad name - and we deplore it. If he had any moral courage, he would resign for such a basic change of heart on an issue that was central to the election in Mid Sussex.
Just a few weeks after the election, the local MP said "I have accepted the evidence of my own eyes". This shows he clearly has not had to try and get to The Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton by any transport - public or private. And we must ask if he had to spend much time parking his car as the rest of those seeking to visit the hospital at busy times have to. There just is not enough space, either within the hospital site, or on adjacent streets. Anyone else would be able to tell him of the woefully inadequate facilities. Or perhaps he is suggesting that we can all pay the totally outrageous £30 fee for an ambulance?
