Setting an end date to a strike kind of defeats the entire purpose.
The employer won’t have to wonder how long its going to go on and can just wait out the strike.6 days without Drs is pretty significant, though. It’s a reflection of how crucial they are
And then they can do it again if they don’t get a solution they are satisfied with. This is a significant action by these doctors, the longest strike the NHS has ever had, and it comes on top of more than a year of on/off industrial action.
Isn’t the underlying situation just boilerplate conservative greed?
- defund or otherwise mismanage public service
- use the media to drum up a public outcry
- step in and offer a MoRE eFfIciENt, private option
- …
- profit (then lower quality while raising prices until all the juice is squeezed)
I hope the government comes to their senses.
