Resident doctors in England call off planned strike action after the government makes a new offer that is put to members. The walkout was due to begin at 7am on Monday and was described in reporting as a four-day strike. Multiple outlets say the action is cancelled following the last-minute offer, which union members are set to vote on or consider. The Guardian reports that the new offer includes an average 6.6% pay uplift, as well as other terms, though details of non-pay elements are not consistent across the provided summaries. The dispute is characterised as part of an ongoing programme of industrial action, with the planned strike described as the 16th round since 2023. Separately, some coverage notes operational preparations by hospitals ahead of the industrial action. One outlet also references a warning tied to changes at Cheltenham General Hospital during the period leading up to the strikes, suggesting contingency planning was under way. Overall, sources agree the planned strike is called off after a government proposal, with the offer now moving to members for consideration.
