As the Govt. hoped the #NHSStaffCouncil voted (by a majority) to accept the pay offer on the table; but it remains unclear whether it will be fully funded, while the #RCN & #Unite will continue the strikes.
#SteveBarclay will be hoping he can now impose the settlement on the resisting #Nurses & #NHS staff, and they will call it a day.
However, if as I suspect that Barclay will not be able to assure full funding, those who voted for the package may feel betrayed & will support further strikes?

Very clearly #SteveBarclay is hoping the #NHSStaffCouncil meeting tomorrow will vote in favour of the middling & (at least partly) unfunded pay deal on the table, leaving the RCN & Unite isolated in their continuing #strikes... so lets hope the other #unions recognise this as the divide & rule tactic always used by bullying management and find some way to accord with their members' voting without leaving the RCN & Unite exposed.
