In the current climate I reckon it’s a strong possibility.
/The Royal College of Nursing is balloting all of its UK members for strike action for the first time in its 106-year history.
The union is recommending its 300,000 members walk out over pay, with the result of the ballot due next month.
If strikes go ahead, the RCN says they would affect non-urgent but not emergency care.
The government has urged nurses to "carefully consider" the impact on patients./
……just after it removed the cap on bankers bonuses and attempted to increase the wealth of the top 1% in the country?
As a great character once said:
The impudence, the audacity, the unmitigated gall.

"The country has a difficult winter ahead but the unions will make sure it’s even more difficult." I don't think we need worry too much now that we have a crack team in place with real world experience and the good of citizens at heart. Reasonable negotiations and not knee-jerk reaction will surely be the order of the day.

I have recent experience of nhs , the nursing staff are struggling but still doing the best they can , but my local plague pit hospital is a poorly organised shambles , which is letting them down. Yes they need more money for what they do and to retain them, but I very much doubt that any politician can fix the nhs, it’s broken beyond recovery , time for a plan B

//Nurses are the middle grade in the NHS and when qualified are paid a pretty decent salary & well above the national average. For them even to consider strike action is an absolute disgrace. Shame on them.//
You do realise though that the ‘hero’ health care assistants will join them though, don’t you?
Doctors too it would seem?

Just greedy scum I guess, not like the noble bankers and millionaires eh?

Personally I think the NHS is due for a damn good shake up and possibly total privatisation. Dunno how that could could work with the current set up & history but deffo summat needs doing. Other (first world) countries have better outcomes with different models.
And no more holding the public to ransom.

// What shall we do Davebro, flame-thrower the picket lines, or drop a bomb on RCN Headquarters? //
/...and in return, patients arriving at A&E can be triaged to find out who they voted for, and Tory voters can be kick straight out, as postulated by a nurse earlier this week....../
She sounds pretty fed up and qualified her remark.
Lost her job too though, understandably.

Maybe she’s encouraging the Tories to attend a private clinic instead if they’re of Davebro’s mindset? Or realise that they need to start paying NHS workers properly?
Either way, the slating the profession is getting on here alone makes one realise why so many have left…..or how they feel about this government?
Imagine being one of the doctors and nurses who kept Boris alive in the pandemic, only to find out he’d been p!$$!ng it up with the cronies in lockdown? Shameful.
