In response to growing opposition to potential strike actions among resident doctors in England, Health Secretary Wes Streeting is urging doctors to vote against strikes. A recent YouGov poll revealed that nearly 50% of the British public opposes the proposed walkouts, a significant indication of shifting public sentiment. Mr. Streeting emphasized the importance of avoiding prolonged conflicts within the NHS, advocating for continued cooperation over strike action to ensure healthcare stability and rebuild public trust in the system.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting has called on doctors to reject strike action, citing a recent poll indicating that nearly half of the British public opposes the proposed walkouts.
In a column for The Times, Mr. Streeting wrote: "Strikes should always be a last resort, and I don't think they are in anyone's interest today."
This appeal follows a YouGov poll of 4,100 British adults, which revealed that 48 per cent of Britons oppose resident doctors striking, while 39 per cent support such action.
