So the photo on the front of The Mirror yesterday was pretty bad press for the government so it looks like the right thing was done by sending Matt Hancock there to look into it. If, as people are saying this was a hoax and would never have happened and staff were furious about it, I would have imagined he would have found that out and be alerting the world to how low people would sink to make a political point. We have heard nothing...
So, what are the possibilities?;
- The photo was real and a shocking indictment of the state of the NHS
- Matt Hancock didn't get to the bottom of what happened and failed in his job
- This situation somehow benefits the Conservative cause
I wouldn't rely on a large number of people who have a good friend who is a senior nursing sister and Leeds Hospital to refute the claim
