Many breathed a sigh of relief when the resident doctors accepted the latest government pay offer, putting an end to years of strikes. However, just a week later, consultants voted for industrial action.

We discuss the demands of the British Medical Association’s consultants committee and how the government could avert another set of damaging strike action.

We also talk more about the first complaints made about clinicians’ use of AI, as revealed in HSJ this week, and how the national AI regulation review could change how it is used in the NHS.
