English GPs: share your views on the vote in favour of taking industrial action
GPs in England have voted in favour of taking industrial action for the first time in 60 years.
In a ballot run by the British Medical Association (BMA), 98% of family doctors voted in favour of taking collective action in protest at the previous government increasing their budget by only 1.9% this year.
GP partners will be able to choose what form of industrial actions to take from a selection set out by the BMA, the Guardian understands, including one option to limit the number of patients GPs will see each day to 25.
If you’re a GP in England we’d like to hear your views about the vote in favour of taking industrial action. Do you have any concerns?
