Jeremy Hunt has refused a last ditch attempt to negotiate with the BMA and stop the two strikes planned for later this week.
The Health Secretary has announced that he will impose the new contract on NHS junior doctors without finding a compromise with the British Medical Association (BMA).
NHS productivity gains have been truly impressive, but are they sustainable?
The British Medical Association has called off the 48-hour junior doctors’ strike that had been scheduled to begin next Tuesday.
The health secretary continues to misrepresent today’s strike by 10,000 junior doctors as a “completely unnecessary dispute” over pay, ignoring the junior doctors’ concerns about patient safety.
