It's now about four hours since Theresa May told PMQs that Albert Thompson would get "the treatment that he needs” for cancer. But no one seems to know whether this will mean hospital treatment. Most importantly, Thompson himself is still in the dark.

Basic confidentiality issues apply, how would a minister know?

If that's the case, why would May say it was happening before Thompson himself has been told?

Anyway, if a patient has publicly said he seeks treatment x but is being made to pay for it, it's not breaking confidentiality to say, "We're happy to say he can get treatment x without being charged."

Which opens the can of worms of those who have been turned down for treatment funding who do have full NHS cover.

Hardly a "whim". He's been seeking to gather the necessary documentation since 2008, and May was told about the case at PMQs in March.

Who decides treatment funding in NHS in England? If this happened outwith the structures it is a whim.
