The Independent - Thousands of operations axed as strike talks fail

News Briefing

Summary of the front page

The Independent says nurses have accused the government of ‘belligerence’ as last-minute talks failed to stop strikes. The paper says thousands of operations and appointments are being cancelled.

The front page features an image of firefighters laying flowers for the three boys who died after falling through ice on a lake. One of the boys named Jack, 10 had attempted to save the other boys but fell into the water himself. A fourth child is in hospital and is critical.
