HEALTH and social-care workers have been stressed during the coronavirus pandemic to the point of having suicidal thoughts, an online rally has heard.

Labour MP Rosena Allin-Khan spoke at the Frontline Heroes rally during Labour’s virtual conference on Monday night.

The MP for Tooting is also an A&E doctor who, when Parliament is not sitting, works occasional shifts at St George’s Hospital. She said that they became more frequent during the pandemic.
