I was appalled to read recent accusations that Nick du Bois is against Chase Farm Hospital.

He is the first MP to have made a real case about the closure of A&E and this should be recognised. He worked tirelessly to get Andrew Lansley to agree to a proposal being put forward against it and gained his approval for a proposal to be put in within a month.

He even managed to get an extension to the time so that the council would have time to really work on the proposal. This is more than anyone has ever done. The problem is that the proposal from the council lacked the fight needed to win our case. The problem is not with Nick, he has done more in the short time he has been as our MP then the last one did in all the time she was in and this should be recognised.
