00:00Mr Speaker, let me be clear about the strikes. They're dangerous and utterly irresponsible.

00:05And my message to resident doctors is don't abandon patients, work with us to improve conditions and rebuild the NHS.

00:13But Mr Speaker, they left the NHS absolutely on its knees, waiting lists through the roof and confidence absolutely rock bottom.

00:21And Mr Speaker, I'll take no lectures for them on industrial harmony.

00:25More days were lost to strike action on their walls than any year since the 1980s.
