Why are ambulances queuing up to unload patients needing treatment at hospital Accident and Emergency Departments?

Allan Urry asks whether A and E is on life support, at a time when the NHS is trying to make £20 billions savings without compromising patient care. Presenter: Allan Urry Producer: Samantha Fenwick.
