Nurses and ambulance staff go on strike in U.K. in largest walkout

Published

on

Tens of thousands of nurses and ambulance service workers in the U.K. went on strike, leading to the largest ever walkout in the 75-year history of the National Health Service

 
The strike is part of a pay dispute, as health workers are demanding a raise to reflect current inflation levels.

The government argues that a pay increase would be unaffordable and would lead to further price rises.

The strike is expected to be one of the most disruptive in N.H.S. history, with nurses walking out on Tuesday, ambulance workers on Friday, and physiotherapists on Thursday.

Around 500,000 workers, including many from the public sector, have been striking since last summer, putting pressure on the government to resolve the disputes.

Labour leader Sir Kier Stamer wants the government to sort this issue out.

The Royal College of Nursing has written to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak asking for a “swift close” to the strike through “meaningful” pay offers. However, a spokesperson for Sunak said that he will not be getting involved in the talks.

Mark Carney’s Liberals projected to win Canadian election, promising economic reform and a robust stance against Trump.

In Short

Canadians are likely to re-elect Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberal Party, aiming to tackle economic challenges and U.S. relations.

Carney’s leadership has gained voter support, positioning him against Conservative rhetoric and focusing on strengthening Canada’s economy and trade ties.

Canadians are projected to retain the Liberal Party under Prime Minister Mark Carney in the recent national elections.

Carney, a former central banker, is expected to address economic challenges and respond to U.S. President Donald Trump’s claims about Canada’s economy.

The Liberals aim for a fourth term, although it is uncertain if they will secure a majority. Carney took over as Prime Minister following Justin Trudeau’s resignation earlier this year.

The Conservatives were leading by over 20 points in January but the political landscape shifted after Trump’s return. Carney positioned himself as the candidate capable of managing relationships with the U.S. and rebuilding Canada’s economy, which heavily depends on American demand.

Leadership skills

Polling data indicated a turning tide for the Liberals, as voters appreciated Carney’s leadership skills. After a conversation with Trump, Carney mentioned plans to discuss a new economic and security agreement post-election.

He plans to increase military investment while maintaining Canadian sovereignty on key issues like resources and language laws.

Carney has emphasised the need to enhance trade ties with Europe and Asia, aiming to reduce barriers within Canada. With his background in finance during critical periods, he aims to bring confidence back to the economy through tax reforms and targeted spending.

Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative rhetoric reportedly alienated some voters, amplifying support for Carney as the viable choice against Trump’s influence.
