‘Winter crisis’
A round-up of the headlines from the UK front pages
The UK is facing its “worst ever winter crisis” as serious cases of flu reach record levels, says The Guardian. GPs, hospitals and ambulance services are already under “intense strain”.
The highest flu case numbers are being reported in children at school, says The i Paper, and the Daily Express says the resident doctors’ strike planned for next week is “reckless”.
The Minister for Armed Forces, Alistair Carns, tells The Telegraph that Nato countries, including the UK, must increase their “lethality”, and stop relying on US security guarantees. “Britain is on a war footing”, Carns says in the Daily Mail.
