It sounds like they've instructed Lionel Hutz to act for them.
It's all got out of hand now. It's sad. But, they're desperately fighting a losing battle. In more ways than one.
Regarding Alder Hey, it's a good job that they've got their eye on the ball and are solely concerned with their primary goal - treating sick children - as they could easily sue some of the "Army" hangers on over some of the ridiculous and defamatory scaremongering they're spouting.
An important point was raised by someone the other day. Young children are like sponges. They absorb everything, take it all in. If they're being dragged to a protest outside Alder Hey by their ma, who's shouting about them being "murderers" and "baby killers" etc, just imagine how fucking petrified their own kids will be if they subsequently have the misfortune of needing to be admitted to Alder Hey, or any other hospital?
It's no real surprise that all the bilious, angry bandwagoners appear to be the sort who think "Alder Hay" are "discusting"
