A grandmother has accused faceless NHS bureaucrats of condemning her to death after they refused to fund £8,000 worth of lifesaving treatment.

Carol Colman, 69, who who lives in the London Road area of Dunstable, said: “It seems my life is worth less than a second-hand car.

“On the day I was told I’d been turned down for cyberknife therapy, there was a story in the paper about two doctors who’d been awarded £1million in redundancy then rehired at £120,000 for four months’ work. Well I say sausages to that – I’m not going to go out without a fight.

“I’ve already contacted the Prime Minister, and my MP Andrew Selous has written four letters on my behalf. And if necessary I’ll stand outside a supermarket and ask 8,000 people to give me £1 each.”
