STRIKES by junior doctors across England’s NHS look set to continue after stubborn Tory ministers again refused to reopen pay talks today.
As the latest four-day walkout ended at 7am, Health Minister Will Quince insisted that wage negotiations are over, despite years of plummeting take-home pay.
He claimed to be “open” to discussions on other issues affecting the austerity-hit health service, including working environments.
