‘This stinks doesn’t it?’ | James O’Brien on doctors’ strikes
James O’Brien wrestles with the upcoming doctors strike and why he believes public support might be fading.
Thousands of doctors are expected to strike tomorrow to demand a 29 per cent pay rise, a figure the British Medical Association claims matches how much doctors’ pay has fallen since 2008-09.
Numerous NHS bosses have criticised those taking industrial action, with Sir Jim Mackey the latest to wade in, claiming doctors must not be “consequence-free”.
Sir Jim said those looking to take on overtime to clear backlogs once the industrial action is over should be blocked from doing so.
