About this episode
Resident doctors in England plan six-day strike, demanding full pay restoration, as ongoing pay dispute with the government escalates. The strike, set to begin April 7th, could cost £300 million and lead to canceled appointments and longer wait times. Despite recent negotiations, the impasse remains over the timing of extra pay, with doctors seeking it all by 2027 and officials pushing for a three-year spread. Both sides have hinted at willingness for fresh talks to avoid chaos, leaving room for a last-minute deal. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
