'How is it, on your watch, we have the first ambulance strike of this magnitude in 30 years, it's a day of shame for you and your government isn't it?' NickFerrariLBC clashes with Health Secretary Steve Barclay over NHS pay.
Taking Steve Barclay to task, NIck asked: "How is it, on your watch, we have the first ambulance strike of this magnitude in 30 years, it's a day of shame for you and your government isn't it?"
Unions and ministers accuse each other of harming patients as 999 strikes start, with Brits warned to 'take extra care' "Oh please, Secretary of State," Nick interrupted questioning the qualifications of the people who sit on the NHS independent Pay Review Body. Union leaders insisted there would still be cover for the most serious calls through a series of local agreements.
