Resident doctors accept pay deal to end years of strikes

The decision concludes a dispute that saw the British Medical Association (BMA) Resident Doctor Committee orchestrate 21 days of strikes since July 2025. The new agreement includes the implementation of standard 2016 resident doctor contract terms for all locally employed medics.
