Dowden: Playing scare tactics with the public and playing politics with the strikes

19 Dec 2022

EMBARGO: IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Responding to the Oliver Dowden media round, Liberal Democrat Cabinet Office spokesperson Christine Jardine MP said:

“In the week before Christmas we need more humanity not less from Oliver Dowden and his Government.  Sitting down with the nurses and discussing pay is the obvious move right now.  Instead he spent this morning playing scare tactics with the public and playing politics with the strikes.  This Government has spent the past year giving tax breaks to the banks and leaving the NHS and nurses struggling, this has to change to get a fair deal for everyone.”
