Hundreds of NHS bosses are pocketing salaries higher than the Prime Minister's, a report reveals today.
Despite failing to bring down waiting lists, nearly 1,700 fat-cat bureaucrats at NHS trusts were each handed more than £100,000 a year.
With record sums already being poured in by taxpayers, the first-ever NHS Rich List found that 512 managers banked salaries higher than Sir Keir Starmer (£172,153).
Nearly 300 received packages of £200,000 or more.
East Cheshire NHS Trust paid eight managers £100,000 or more despite being the worst-performing trust in percentage terms for seeing A&E patients within four hours.
