Striking junior doctors march through Manchester in row with government over pay
Junior doctors are preparing to strike every month until next spring, medics have said.
The British Medical Association (BMA) said it will ballot training doctors next week to extend its strike mandate.
Junior doctors said they will also consider “coordinated action” with consultants, who are also currently being balloted over the possibility of strike action.
If members vote to continue strikes, junior doctors will take to picket lines for three days a month, every month, until March 2024.
The move would represent a significant escalation in the dispute with the government over pay.
