Last week in the biggest vote in 106-year history of the nursing union, over 350,000 NHS nurses across the country took to the ballot box to decide whether they would take strike action for better pay.
The Royal College of Nurses (RCN) revealed that members at the majority of NHS employers across the UK voted in favour of striking, including at some of the leading hospitals in the country.
The ballot was called following NHS Agenda for Change pay announcements earlier this year, which revealed that experienced nurses were 20 per cent worse off in real terms, compared with a decade ago.
