Has any other hospital had to suffer as much as Infirmary?
Beatriz Ayala12/12/2006
ROCHDALE has been left devastated by the Infirmary's loss of maternity, children's and neo-natal services.
Is there any other hospital?
YES THERE IS - SOUTHPORT!
The same cuts at our hospital has created unrest over the last 4 years and more.
The local LibDem MP, John Pugh, has made political capital out of the situation. Local, non-LibDem, campaigners have been ridiculed by the MP and his helpers and "consultation" with the local population has been a matter of "we're going to do these things - you can object to them as much as you want, but we'll do them anyway".
A total farce and a disgrace.

After a CARES-organised march of protest involving 4,000 people and nearly 20,000 names on petitions presented to the health authorities and Westminster they still stripped us of our local children's A&E and maternity back in 2003.
The NHS is not safe and is really in a diabolical mess.
The fight goes on.
