The battle to save the NHS is now on.

The RCN is the worlds least militant union and should have taken this action years ago. 12 years of conservatism have led to this mess and people are going to die because of tory policies.

The tories only response to this is to say there is no money and to try and turn public opinion against the nurses.

Its doomed to fail. People are being asked to choose between lying tory politicians or the nurse who saved their mothers life.

Britain is broken and the revolution cant come quickly enough.

Power to the people not the capitalist elites.

More right wing lies!

Socialized medicine is the bomb diggity.
 
How will walking out on the patients "save" the NHS at all?

It will just force patients to go elsewhere for their medical care- like many other British subjects have already done. I was reading where British subject Mick Jagger came to America for complicated and expensive heart surgery, instead of using the free NHS.
 
The strike wasn't called right after you had your last colonoscopy by any chance, was it?



Cruel and inhumane working conditions and all......
 
I hope you guys can battle conservatives better than Democrats have done in this country, those people will tear down any institution they can if privateers can turn someone a profit from doing so, and spend that on conservative lawmakers. They have left this country's institutions a carcass.

They have run it down for 12 years while folk looked the other way. Nobody outside the private healthcare providers and their bought and paid tory lackeys supports this.
Conservatism is barbarianm evil and immoral.

Thats a cracking article.. Brexit is the elephant but dont discount sheer incompetence.

Nothing is working. You cant get a passport,take a driving test, catch a train or post a letter.All local schools have cancelled nativity plays because of strep A.

Churches are providing warm rooms for people who cant afford to put their heating on.

Meanwhile our zombie conservative govt lurches on oblivious to it all. They are responding to the strikes by drawing up laws to ban strikes.

It makes me so angry.

Putin done it.

If only the socialists could stop blaming other people for all their short comings.

I am very sympathetic to your stance and the many good points you make .
But if you believe Starmer, for example , is one jot less of a WEF arse lick than Sunak et al , then we do disagree over something .
And regardless, even if there are a few non obligated and honey trapped opposition individuals , I cannot see how a NHS can function when the country is truly bankrupt .

I have no positive ideas on how to save the basic foundation principals of the NHs and it is just possible that no solution can be found this side of a revolution .
So let's have one .

The UK has been in decline for over 100 years

We spend less on health than Germany or France. We can afford to spend more.Its the same for all of our services. Our economy is set up to benefit the 1% and that needs to change.

Im not enthused by starmer either. But he is a better option tha these tories. They have run out of ideas and credibility.

We need a reset.
