Conservative Party chairman Nadhim Zahawi stated that the government is considering deploying the army to help reduce anticipated strike disruption around Christmas.

Zahawi told Sky News’ Sophy Ridge on Sunday that under the proposals, military soldiers might be “driving ambulances” and working on UK borders.

He also urged that pharmacists be called upon to assist in breaking the NHS strike, adding that “we have to be able to deliver safe levels of treatment and support to patients.”

You can watch the interview in full below:

According to a statement from Number 10, no decision on troop deployment has been made, but personnel “are a part of the range of options available should strike action in these areas go ahead as planned.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
