DR Richard Taylor, in his bid to win support in the General Election stakes, seems anxious to blame just about everyone for the downgrading of Kidderminster General Hospital.
We would remind him that the Conservative councillors of Wyre Forest District Council have always fully supported the campaign to save our hospital.
Furthermore, the previous Conservative Government over 18 years invested £42m in the new buildings and services we had until October last. Dr Taylor's sincerity is admirable but tunnelled.
If he was successful in his bid we doubt whether any lone voice would alter the decisions of the Government, particularly if it was another Labour one.
The District Conservative Group endorses all that Mark Simpson our prospective Parliamentary Candidate, and Dr Liam Fox the shadow Health Secretary, have said - that we will provide a comprehensive review of health care in Worcestershire.
STEPHEN CLEE (and four other councillors)
Conservative Group,
Wyre Forest District Council.
