The data shows that, for this trust, on average 0 fewer people are waiting over four hours to be seen at A&E than in 2015.

Unfortunately, for many English hospitals, the situation is much worse. After nearly a decade of Conservative rule, each month over 400,000 more people are made to wait over four hours to be seen at A&E than in 2011.

Note: Over the past few months A&E attendance across England has fallen by more than 50% as people choose to stay at home to help reduce the pressure on the NHS during the current pandemic.
