I feel that Jeremy Hunt’s decision to unilaterally impose new contracts
has turned the Junior Doctors strike into the iconic ideological
struggle of our time. The Tories clearly think they can win this and
have decided to go for it. They must believe public opinion will
eventually turn against the Doctors. With the backing of the Tabloids It
was easy for the Tories to go after the sick and disabled, they were
the low hanging fruit, but if they can defeat the middle class, highly
educated, & articulate YDs they will be confident, probably
correctly, that they are are free to go after whoever they want. #generalstrike #minersstrike #JuniorDoctorsStrike
