Nottingham nurses began their second day of strike action as they fight for fair pay and better conditions for staff. Dozens of nurses returned to the picket lines on Tuesday, December 20, outside Queen's Medical Centre for a day of action organised by the Royal College of Nursing.
Many strikers could be seen at the roadside as early as 7am, with many more joining throughout the day. The group were chanting to reiterate their key messages of wanting better pay, and also for more to be done to recruit and retain staff in the profession.
One of their key chants was, "All we want for Christmas is a fair pay rise, to make our patients safe." In addition to nurses and other supporters holding their placards, many passing vehicles honked in support for the group.
