Health Secretary Wes Streeting has called on doctors to reject strike action, citing a recent poll indicating that nearly half of the British public opposes the proposed walkouts.

The British Medical Association (BMA) is currently balloting resident doctors in England, formerly known as junior doctors, regarding potential strike action that could extend for six months.
