Royal Blackburn hospital A&E overcrowded

These are the shocking scenes inside the A&E; unit of one of the country's top-performing hospitals. Friends and family members spoke to loved ones as they waited to be treated at the hospital (main picture) while mothers were forced to sit on the floor (inset, right).

A woman was seen receiving treatment in the corridor (bottom left) while the elderly queued up on trolleys and in wheelchairs (top left, top right and bottom right). Managers at the Royal Blackburn hospital in Lancashire have even resorted to appointing designated 'corridor nurses' to take care of all the patients waiting without a bed.

Commons Speaker John Bercow should be stripped of control over Westminster Hall speeches after his attack on 'racist' Trump, says Lords counterpart Lord Fowler 

Defiant John Bercow, left, has dismissed MP fury over his attack on 'racist' Donald Trump, pictured inset, as his Lords counterpart Lord Fowler, right, suggested the Speaker should be stripped of control over Westminster Hall speeches.

The comments last night were cheered by many MPs in the chamber, who have been heavily critical of the travel ban imposed by the White House on nationals from seven mainly-Muslim countries.
