Ministers and doctors have both vowed to fight on as the first all-out doctor strikes in the history of the NHS ended in England without any major problems.

The last two days have seen junior doctors walk out of routine and emergency care in protest against the imposition of new working conditions.

NHS bosses said hospitals had coped "admirably" during the stoppages.

But there looks to be no end in sight to the dispute with doctors' leaders not ruling out more strikes.

Sources at the British Medical Association said they would now spend the coming days and weeks considering their next options.

But they were adamant this would not be the end of the protest against the imposition of a new contract.
