Junior doctors, London tram engineers and Liverpool bus drivers will all strike in July 2024
Junior doctors are qualified doctors who are still involved in clinical training, according to the BMA. Patients may be treated by a junior doctor in a hospital or general practice setting.
“For more than 18 months we have been asking Rishi Sunak to put forward proposals to restore the pay junior doctors have lost over the past 15 years – equal to more than a quarter in real terms. “Even at this late stage Mr Sunak has the opportunity to show that he cares about the NHS and its workers. It is finally time for him to make a concrete commitment to restore doctors’ pay. If during this campaign he makes such a public commitment that is acceptable to the BMA’s junior doctors committee, then no strikes need go ahead.“Workers are angry over the disparity between their pay and that of Arriva Liverpool drivers. Arriva drivers are paid £1.
“Unite’s Liverpool Stagecoach members have their union’s total backing in striking for a fair pay rise.”The first of two strikes begins on, disrupting services to Wimbledon on the finals weekend. TfL advises travellers to plan ahead, allow more time for your journey and check before you travel.
