BORIS JOHNSON today refused to apologise to a 92-year-old RAF veteran who had been made to wait more than 12 hours on a hospital trolley for a bed.

The Commons showdown saw Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn criticise the Tory government over the record number of patients waiting longer than promised for A&E and cancer treatment.

The number of people waiting more than four hours in A&E is the highest on record, with the number of people waiting on trolleys for ward beds doubling in December.
