Junior doctors: Strike is 'very disappointing' start to the year

Junior doctors have told ITV News it is "very disappointing" to have to start the year with strike action as they feel the government haven't "addressed any of our issues".

Junior doctors in England will strike next Tuesday after talks with the government failed to reach an agreement over pay and working conditions.

This may be followed by two more strikes if progress in negotiations is not made, the BMA said.

The government haven't addressed any of our issues or come to an agreement with us.
