    Elderly in law on waiting list at BDGH for hip replacement - do some people waiting for the same op get priority i.e. jump the queue due to them being of working age or because they have young dependents or other reasons?

    Keep pestering the Consultants Secretary and Orthopaedic Admissions asking when she is due the operation

    If someone suffers a broken hip through a trauma, they would likely jump the list.

    Not just waiting lists, this is King's Lynn, in Truss's constituency.

    It begs the question "why do they keep voting James Wild in"?

    Agreed. Severity could bump someone up the list. If one person can walk with difficulty and another can't walk at all, the latter should probably get priority.

    Liz Truss isn't the MP for Kings Lynn - she is MP for South West Norfolk. James WIld is the MP for North West Norfolk - including King's Lynn.

    Video says hospital has been allocated money and have applied for future funding and has had support from Truss?
