Resident doctors on strike for six days

Available for over a year

Resident doctors have begun a six day walk-out in a dispute with the government about pay and job opportunities. Last week Sir Keir Starmer called it "reckless" and threatened to remove 1000 extra training places as the dispute over pay continues. This is now the 15th strike - with The British Medical Association saying doctor's 3.5 per cent pay rise this year is not enough.
