Labor’s disgusting fear-mongering on St Marys must stop

Michael Ferguson,

Rebecca White has today “pledged to save” the St Marys Community Health Centre that is not, and never has been, at risk, in what is a new low for the supposed leader of the opposition.

Ms White is causing careless, fear and uncertainty for the elderly, the young and vulnerable who rely on this vital service, and using them as political play things.

Labor are renowned for telling false stories about health funding and patient experiences in a bid for a cheap headline.

Ms White made the same ridiculous claim in 2014, and was proven false.

Just like the time she also tried to score cheap political points by claiming a patient had been “strapped to a spine board” for seven hours, which she later had to retract because it was wrong.

Or the time Labor’s Ms Dow said there was a “disturbingly high number of deaths on arrival at our hospitals compared with other states” – which was also untrue.
