Can Streeting stop the doctors strikes?
Update: 2025-07-09
Description
After yesterday’s royal welcome from King Charles, President Macron will get down to business today, meeting the Prime Minister for lunch, after PMQs.
But, as Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy discuss on this episode, away from the pomp, Keir Starmer’s in-tray doesn’t look any less challenging.
It includes a headache for health secretary Wes Streeting as resident doctors, formerly known as junior doctors, announce a new strike as well as a punchy warning from the OBR on making promises to the public.
Also today. the Welfare Bill returns to the Commons – with reports of another rebellion brewing.
