Royal College of Nursing says 92% of its members in England believe 3% pay offer is unacceptable
The prospect of nurses in England striking for the first time has drawn nearer after their union decided to ballot members on taking industrial action over their 3% pay rise.
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) will undertake an indicative ballot to see if nurses are prepared to work to rule or go on strike in protest at the government’s “completely unacceptable” offer.
