Junior doctors in England are to stage more strikes in December and January, after rejecting a new pay offer put forward in talks with government. They will walk out for nine days in total – from 7am on December 20 to 7am on December 23, and from 7am on January 3 to 7am on January 9. The strike in January is six full days, which the union called the longest single period of industrial action in the history of the health service.
