A cancer charity has warned that a "devastating divide" has opened up between England, Scotland and Wales when it comes to accessing new drugs.

According to research by the Rarer Cancers Foundation (RCF) people in Scotland are three times less likely to get access to a newer cancer drug than their neighbours in England.
