Do you think patients' lives could be lost because of ambulance worker strikes? - JayneSeckerSky National Officer for GMB_union Rachel Harrison claims 'people are dying waiting for ambulances', adding that the government 'are not listening'.
The strikes will go ahead after the Royal College of Nursing staged their second walkout, which was also over pay.
"The last thing they want to do is take strike action, but the government has left them with no choice. Sharon Graham, Unite general secretary, said:"Make no mistake, we are now in the fight of our lives for the very NHS itself. These strikes are a stark warning - our members are taking a stand to save our NHS from this government.
It is also balloting 10,000 more NHS workers at 38 different employers across England and Wales. The results are expected later this month.Unison said its strike, which involves paramedics, emergency care assistants, ambulance technicians and other 999 crew members, will run from midday until midnight on 21 December.
