Theresa May's Wales-England A&E comparison 'not valid'

Theresa May's Wales-England A&E comparison 'not valid' The UK Statistics Authority has backed First Minister Carwyn Jones's criticism of Prime Minister Theresa May's use of accident and emergency data.

Mr Jones said a comparison of those waiting 12 hours or more at A&E in Wales and England was unfair as the figures are measured in different ways.

Authority chairman Sir David Norgrove said the comparison was "not valid".

A spokesman for Mrs May accepted the assessment but insisted A&E performance in England was better than Wales. BBC News
