AMBULANCE workers in south-east England will go on strike tomorrow as Unite escalates its industrial action in a long-running dispute over pay.
Unite’s members employed at South Central Ambulance Service NHS Trust and South East Coast Ambulance Service NHS Trust will strike from 12pm until 10pm.
Last month, Unite’s members and those in the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) employed in the NHS in England rejected the government’s offer of a lump sum cash payment for 2022-23 and a 5 per cent pay rise for this year.
