‘You backed the last strike, why not this one?’ James O’Brien | LBC
James O’Brien delivers his opening monologue as the government and resident doctors head toward a possible five-day NHS strike later this month.
With public support dropping from 52% to just 26%, James questions whether his usual instinct to back industrial action still holds up, and whether it’s right to focus solely on pay figures.
Resident doctors, previously known as junior doctors, are set to walk out from 25th – 30th July in an ongoing dispute over pay.
The government says it can’t improve its 5.4% offer, while the British Medical Association says it’s still open to talks.
