The NHS may have to cut frontline staff plus appointments and operations for patients if doctors’ strikes continue, health leaders have warned.

As thousands of resident doctors go on strike across England on Friday in a dispute over pay, the NHS Confederation and NHS Providers, which represent health trusts, said continued action was piling pressure on already-stretched budgets.

The five-day action is the 13th walkout by doctors since March 2023, with the last strike in July estimated to have cost the health service £300 million.

Speaking with Shadow Health Secretary Stuart Andrew MP, Talk's Mark Dolan says: “Will there be harm to patients from the strikes?"
