Pat Cullen, Secretary General and Executive Director of the Royal College of Nursing in the UK, indicated that “the nursing staff intends for the first time in their history to vote for a general strike amid the National Health Service’s slide to the brink of an abyss amidst the possibility of its inability to endure and continuity.”

And Colin pointed out in an exclusive interview with the British newspaper The Observer that “there is a wave of anger among nurses who feel that British ministers do not appreciate their importance”, stressing before the vote on the start of the strike that “an employee is on the front line in the hospital.” the government will do everything for us.

Colin, head of Britain’s largest union for nurses, said “when I spoke to them about disillusionment with the workforce, they said, ‘We’re not just a disillusioned workforce. If not, it’s scary to think about the consequences.”

She explained that “the role of health care in Britain is not on the edge of the abyss, but has crossed it, and people trying to restore it are receiving the lowest wages”, adding that “if we use up their energy more, there will be no medical care”.

Colin has toured the country and has spoken to hundreds of nurses over the past few weeks about whether she should strike the Royal College of Nursing, which represents nearly 500,000 nurses and support workers.

According to a British newspaper, “Voting on the measure was supposed to start last Thursday but was delayed after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.”
