🔴 Ambulance workers will stage 10 strikes over the next two months in an escalation of the bitter dispute over pay and staffing, Unite has announced
Royal College of Nursing has co-ordinated with ambulance staff to strike on 6 February,Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said the Government has “disgracefully chosen to demonise ambulance workers” rather than protecting the NHS by ending the dispute.previous strikes.
People needing life-saving treatment, such as renal care and cancer treatment, will be transported to their hospital appointments. “Ministers are deliberately misleading the public about the life and limb cover and who is to blame for excessive deaths,” said Ms Graham. “Our members faithfully provide life and limb cover on strike days and it’s not the unions who are not providing minimum service levels.
“It’s this government’s disastrous handling of the NHS that has brought it to breaking point, and as crisis piles on crisis, the prime minister is seen to be washing his hands of the dispute. What a disgrace. What an abdication of leadership.”
