Sorry for the plain speaking but your comments are incredibly insulting when you describe valued colleagues as just workers. A decision to strike is an individual one but you can’t be unaware of the levels of staff demoralisation & frustration as a whole including Consultants

We need 2 reverse this narrative that having a mental illness➡️can’t be a good dr/will lose license to practise/are a failure/weak. Many examples where the most empathic & hardworking drs r those who hv a mental illness. Regulators/Trust Boards & Government hv work to do here

The need 2 get this right has never been greater. The lives of health & care workers, patients and the future of mental healthcare services depend on organisations taking immediate steps to protect those most at risk including BAME staff thereby protecting all staff and patients
