Nurses protest for the first time in 106 years in Britain over pay increases
The voice of protest was heard again in Britain, which is experiencing an economic crisis. Nurses at the Royal College of Nursing went on a nationwide strike on Thursday. They demanded a 5 percent increase in wages and improved working conditions.
Nurses from England, Wales and Northern Ireland have called for a one-day strike to reject the proposal announced by the government. We are tired of waiting. We are bored. The current salary is not enough. A head nurse named Amira said we needed a pay raise.
For the first time in their 106-year history, nurses from the Royal College of Nursing took to the streets. About one lakh people were absent from duty in support of the dharna.
However, emergency services such as chemotherapy, dialysis and the intensive care unit will not face any problems, he said. Due to a shortage of staff, many nurses work overtime. So they went on strike to raise their wages. British citizens are facing many hardships in an economic depression.
