Health unions are split on how to proceed after the government's latest, and apparently final, pay offer - with the RCN and Unite refusing the deal, while Unison and GMB have accepted it
NHS services across England are bracing for more disruption, as nurses get ready to stage a 28-hour walkout over pay.at 8pm today, and will end it at 11.59pm on Monday evening, after voting to reject the government's latest pay offer.
The union had earlier refused to agree to derogations , but later said it would grant some exemptions. Health Secretary Steve Barclay has called the latest walkout"disappointing" and accused the RCN of risking patient safety. He said:"It is hugely disappointing some unions are escalating strike action this week - including the RCN, despite only a third of its members rejecting the government's fair and reasonable offer on pay, which other unions accepted.
