Ambulances can be seen outside the emergency department of the Royal London Hospital, as drivers and paramedics stage a second strike, calling for pay increases that more closely match high inflation, joined this time by emergency call handlers. The government has introduced legislation which will enforce minimum service levels from striking workers.
