Doctors' Strike in England: 14th in Ongoing Dispute
Update: 2025-12-16
Description
Despite a new government offer, British doctors union votes to proceed with a five-day strike, citing unresolved pay concerns and a surge in flu cases. The strike, set to begin Wednesday, will impact both emergency and non-urgent care, with senior doctors providing cover. The union argues that doctors pay is still a fifth lower than in 2008, once inflation is considered, while the government maintains that salaries have increased by nearly thirty percent in the past three years.
