The UK is more that London

I doubt it Kittye - road access would be dire.

There’s a couple of nice big houses in London that are empty now that their owners have escaped to their country mansions.
They’d make better hospitals than exhibition centres

There are more cases in London than any other part of the country.
London is reckoned to be “2 weeks ahead” of the rest of the country in the diagnosis of cases.
At one large a London hospital (Northwick Park) they ran out of Covid beds at the weekend.
Yes there is more to the UK than London but does it not make sense to provide care where it is most needed.

A new 4000 bed hospital. How lovely. I don't begrudge it to the people of London but the UK is bigger than one city. What about the rest of us?
