Nurses voting to strike nationally would be an absolutely damning indictment of a UK Conservative Government that’s lost the confidence of NHS staff and the patients they treat.
The first national walkout in the history of the traditionally moderate Royal College of Nursing is good, caring workers driven to industrial action by Tories who clapped them during Covid then clamped their pay way below inflation, reducing the living standards of people earning far from a fortune.
Blame is with the Government, not nurses taking what they feel is the only option left open to them. Abuse anyone for too long and they’ll eventually bite back.
