Strikes: Stories from the picket line

The season of strikes is in full swing and on Thursday it’s the turn of nurses and postal workers. 

The Royal College of Nursing say they’ve been left with no alternative but to hold the biggest industrial action in NHS history. 

Linda Tovey, a critical care nurse at St Thomas' Hospital, London, reveals what led her to strike and her worries over the quality of care patients will receive.  

In part two, Katie Strick, commissioning editor and senior feature writer at the Evening Standard, meets postal workers Vinny and Hannah on the picket line to hear about their concerns for the future of Royal Mail.
