"I felt that junior doctors striking for sx days. the longest strike in NHS history, was unconscionable. Whatever their financial woes, they risked people dying. It's as straightforward as that. So I've drawn the grim reapers here. I've done quite a bit on strikes this year. I was very critical of junior doctors and consultants. What are they striking for? Consultants certainly have enough money. Junior doctors don't. I know they've fallen behind, but we've all fallen behind in that sense. If there is the possibility of people dying while you're on strike, don't do it. Get another job." - Peter Brookes
