If you are on Facebook and would like to help promote the march on 26th January, please share the photo at http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=4...862&type=1

There is also an excellent analysis of the situation in the Observer today: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2013/jan/13...ll-closure
A couple of good points:

Quote:
Senior medics at Lewisham, furious at it being "penalised" for another trust's failings, point out that SLHT's expected deficit of £75m over the next three years could be cut to just £1.1m by implementing all of administrator Matthew Kershaw's radical blueprint apart from his insistence that their hospital lose its emergency and childbirth departments.

And if you think an annual deficit of £1.1m is still too much, consider that the cost of producing the report was £5m (£1m over budget in less than 6 months, without treating a single patient).

Quote:
"It's fiscal nonsense and financial madness to do this. How can you tell the taxpayer that it's sensible to spend £195m to get £19.5m savings a year?" said Dr John Miell, a consultant endocrinologist at Lewisham. "It's completely unfair and ridiculous to penalise a successful, high-performing, viable NHS trust to bail out a PFI-burdened and debt-laden neighbour."

The secretary of state needs to reject the proposals relating to Lewisham hospital and turn his attention to the hospitals that have problems, not those that are performing extremely well by every measure.
