CENTRAL News reported that Solihull General Hospital is not to be downgraded, after the local NHS Trust agreed to find the money needed to keep it fully operational.

Now, why couldn't our NHS Trust do the same for Kidderminster? Is it a case of one rule for one and one rule for another? I currently feel our council has something against Kidderminster - and, come to think of it, Pershore as well.
