Health spokesperson Wes Streeting reiterates need for caution over spending if party wins next general election
A Labour government would treat increasing the pay of junior doctors as “a journey, not an event” Wes Streeting, the shadow health secretary has said in the latest warning about the need for caution over spending if the party wins power.
Streeting also said while he wanted maximum waiting times for operations to fall to 18 weeks by the end of a first term in power, he was “not going to create a hostage to fortune” by making specific pledges on NHS waiting lists.
