Junior doctors ‘may keep striking for another year’ says BMA insider

Warning comes on eve of England's 61,000 junior doctors beginning four-day action

Junior doctors may keep striking for another year in their bitter pay dispute with the government, despite NHS leaders' growing alarm about how the industrial action is disrupting patient care.

Trainee medics in England could even hold a week-long stoppage to escalate their campaign of industrial action to secure a 35% pay rise from the health secretary, Steve Barclay.
