What this is likely to mean is that quite a few women who go in to labour and spend 24 hours at Lewisham not doing much, before everything suddenly starts to go very wrong, will then have to be blue lighted to Kings or QEH (Poor women if they go there!). I wonder what the effect will be on the ambulance service. Oh well, it's done now, and it was always likely it would be, so we have to hope that it won't be a disaster. Much as a part of me would like it to completely fail and show this to have been a crap idea, I don't want people dying to prove me right, so I will hope that all of us doubters are wrong, and Mr Hunt in all his wisdom has it right. I bet he couldn't wait to make the announcement!
