NHS consultants to go on two-day strike in England in November, says BMA

Senior doctors in England are set to begin a two-day strike starting at 6:59 AM on November 25, according to their union, with only emergency medical services to remain operational during the walkout.

The British Medical Association has confirmed the strike, warning that routine services will be severely disrupted. Hospitals are preparing for the disruption, though details on alternative arrangements remain limited.
