Streeting 'fearful for NHS as strike looms'
Coventry Telegraph
|December 13, 2025
WES Streeting has said he is “genuinely fearful” for the NHS if next week’s strike by resident doctors goes ahead amid surging flu cases, agreeing the collapse of the health service is now “effectively” at “one minute to midnight”.
-
The Health Secretary claimed flu is causing “probably the worst pressure the NHS has faced since covid”.
He also criticised the British Medical Association (BMA) for choosing to strike in December as “they know that this week will be most painful for the NHS”.
Members of the union are currently voting on a new offer from the Government which could put a stop to the walkout.
However, if medics vote against the deal, strikes will take place for five consecutive days from 7am on December 17.
