Commenting as junior doctors in Wales begin a four-day strike, Russell George MS, Welsh Conservative Shadow Health Minister said:
“The blame for these unprecedented junior doctor strikes lies squarely at the door of the Labour Government.
“Labour’s Health Minister, who remains in post in Vaughan Gething’s cabinet, has consistently put the worst offer in the UK on the table, failing to even meet the independent pay review body’s recommendations.
“The Welsh Conservatives have a plan to spend the full Barnett uplift received for health on health and would at least match the independent recommendation, the cost of which is far lower than the cost of Labour and Plaid’s plans to create 36 more politicians.”
