The Campaign and the Council won the day and we've been celebrating. But Hunt has put in an appeal - hard to see on what grounds - and also said that the legislation will be amended (effectively - although they wont say this - to allow Trusts failing because of PFI debts to be shored up by the closure and disposal of neighbouring facilities not so burdened).
As Deadeye Moody says "constant vigilance!". We must oppose this vigorously when it comes. In the meantime no harm in signing a petition (which will undoubtedly be ignored but will be grist to the publicity mill) asking Hunt not to waste taxpayers money appealing the judgment.
