The former Labour Health Secretary, Andy Burnham, has accused his Tory successor Jeremy Hunt of being part an ?orchestrated smear campaign? designed to take political advantage of scandals in the NHS.
The row is threatening to end up in court, after Mr Burnham instructed his lawyers to write to the Health Secretary demanding that he retract an accusation made on Twitter and apologise. A Conservative spokesman said last night that Mr Hunt has no intention of backing down.
