Strikes by ambulance workers in England and Wales will go ahead later this month after talks between union bosses and the health secretary collapsed.
A representative for the Unite union said there was no detailed discussion pay and confirmed strikes by ambulance workers will go ahead on January 23.
The talks with Health Secretary Steve Barclay were described as ‘an insult’ and negotiations are said to have ‘gone backwards.’ Unite negotiator Onay Kasab said the Government told the union they would need to “justify” a payment through productivity.Read more: Charles and Camilla wish Kate happy birthday in show of unity as Harry accused of ‘hanging family out to dry’Harry says he was ‘not invited’ on plane to Balmoral to see the late Queen before she died"Productivity when our members are working 18-hour shifts!
