LABOUR leader Keir Starmer is backing a call by three unions for a nationwide one-minute silence next week to commemorate health workers killed by coronavirus.
The minute’s silence planned for next Tuesday has been proposed by Unison, the Royal College of Nursing and the Royal College of Midwives.
It will coincide with International Workers’ Memorial Day, an annual event remembering those who have lost their lives for work-related reasons.
