BREAKING: Junior doctors strike action announced

by Charlotte Smith | Feb 9, 2024 | Live Blog

Junior doctors in England have today announced they are to go on strike from 24 to 28 February due to the ongoing pay dispute with the government.

Doctors, we pulled out all the stops to avert this round of strikes.

We asked the health secretary to extend our strike mandate for four weeks so we could keep talking in good faith. But she declined, leaving us no choice but to announce a 5-day full walkout from 24-28 Feb. pic.twitter.com/t8iW4uDJDK
