Thousands of ambulance workers will stage a fresh strike on Monday in the long running dispute over pay and staffing. The GMB said more than 11,000 of its ambulance workers will walk out in England and Wales, including paramedics, emergency care assistants and call handlers.
Ambulance workers in the Unite union in parts of the country will also be on strike. Rachel Harrison, GMB national secretary, said: “Ambulance workers across England and Wales will strike today – entirely because this Government is tin-eared.
“It’s been over a month since the Government engaged in any meaningful dialogue. They are missing in action and refuse to talk pay.
