Why Are We Having This Debate?
Strikes across the NHS have been a fairly regular part of UK life over the last decade. From nurse strikes to junior doctors strikes. Post-Covid we have seen them at an increasing rate with more pay disputes than ever Before.
However, the NHS is a national service of EXTREME importance and much like otherr national services of suck extreme value like the police force which has been banned from striking since 1919 should the NHS be allowed strike action at all?
So we ask - Should the NHS be allowed to strike at all?

What We Do
3v3 panel debate where our members explore the strongest arguments for a given topic.
A debate should tell the audience what they need to know and not just what the speakers think. If you feel the same way, then we want to meet you.
Debate London is the year-round series of free public debates held weekly at venues across the capital. The series is run by Debate London, a social enterprise that helps its members to advance their personal and professional development by teaching them how to debate.
All of our speakers are Debate London members who have agreed to defend a particular perspective the audience need to hear, rather than just share their own personal opinion. After presenting the point of view assigned to them, the audience are then given the floor to cross-examine them and share their own position.
The only time we hear what the speakers really think is at the end of the debate when they tell us where they really stand and whether this changed at all while learning how to defend the perspective assigned to them.
After Debate Social
