Ambulance strikes: Unite workers announce 10 new days of walkouts Ten more days of strikes by ambulance workers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have been announced by the Unite union.

Four of the dates in February and March coincide with walkouts by staff from the GMB union, in a pay dispute.
