Ambulance staff walk out in latest strike action as Rishi Sunak insists there's 'no magic wand' for more pay
Around 2,000 North West ambulance staff are expected to walk out in another day of strike action to hit the service.
NWAS workers taking industrial action on Monday told the Manchester Evening News the strike was a call for help for a struggling health service, amid a difficult winter for the NHS. Nick Hopkinson, who has been with the ambulance service for almost 19 years, said: "Paramedics are leaving for private providers who are paying more, or for entirely different professions, leaving us short - but the demand on the services continues to grow leaving us unable to get to everyone.
“Be assured that if you really need us, please continue to call 999, and we will come as quickly as possible. As before, we are maximising our own resources, using private providers and military support where appropriate and working closely with our trade unions to provide cover for the most serious emergencies.
