Manage episode 355455349 series 2661646
Our guest Dr Dan Goyal outlines what the deliberate under funding of the NHS has done to working conditions, the relentless stress nurses face, the impact of covid and the false economics of private health care.
We also discuss the recent news that the UK government are trying to make striking illegal for healthcare workers and the efforts to fightback.
