A national disgrace, support the BMA!
Why are resident doctors going on strike? While patients wait longer to be seen in A&E, too many qualified doctors who could treat them can’t get a training job.

Solidarity with the strikers. Save our NHS
This ‘poll’ had 200 doctors in it. Over 30,000 doctors voted yes to take industrial action across our last two ballots - that’s the real mandate. Wes Streeting’s offer of 2,000 speciality jobs over three years, when 30,000 doctors applied for 10,000 speciality posts this year

This is a hidden secret of WW2. The UK took thousands of these uniformed signed up Nazis in at the end of the war. Some emigrated into Canada and others stayed in the UK. No asylum process or rubber boats for these immigrants.
