Exclusive GP practices face widespread disruption if thousands of practice nurses and reception staff join November's day of strike action over pensions, after the BMA made clear that although doctors will not take part, they should not bring in agency staff to cover strikers.
Figures collected by Pulse indicate more than 8,000 practice nurses and reception staff are members of Unison, Unite and the GMB, and will be balloted by the unions over a day of strike action on pensions on 30 November.
