England's resident doctors vote to extend strike action over pay and training

England's resident doctors have backed more walkouts, giving the BMA a six‑month mandate to press for a deal on pay and the availability of training posts; 93% voted in favour with a 53% turnout. Doctors say pay has risen about 30% in three years but remains below 2008 levels after inflation, and they warn that bottlenecks in training will persist without thousands more posts. The government has offered a 2.5% pay rise from April, and talks have continued since Christmas.

"Valentine's Day Strike: Uber, Lyft, and Deliveroo Drivers Protest Pay in US and UK"

Thousands of Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash drivers are set to strike on Valentine's Day in at least 17 U.S. cities, demanding better pay, transparency, and an end to unfair deactivations. Drivers argue that the companies are taking an increasingly large cut out of fares, forcing them to work longer hours to make ends meet. The strikes come amid declining pay for drivers, with Uber drivers' average monthly earnings before expenses falling 17.1 percent in 2023 compared to the previous year. Both Uber and Lyft have stated that they do not expect the strike to impact trip levels, prices, or driver availability.
