NURSES are striking again today and tomorrow with thousands more Brits set to miss vital appointments and operations. Walkouts will last a total of 24 hours over two days at 55 NHS hospital trusts …
This week’s strikes will involve 25 per cent more staff and more hospitals, meaning more patients will suffer.
The NHS said people should go to appointments as normal unless they are told not to, and still use emergency services.Pat Cullen said: “Today’s strike action by nursing staff is a modest escalation before a sharp increase in under three weeks’ time.“That is how severe things are in the NHS and it is time the Prime Minister led a fight for its future.”said: “Patients will understandably be worried by the prospect of further strike action by nurses.
"The people at the top taking more and more for their pockets, for their businesses, for their friends, for their profits, while the people, the majority of people, suffer – and that includes patients and staff nursing." Brits are still on the side of nurses, according to a poll which found only 30 per cent are against the strikes.
