The mother of a three-year-old girl suffering from cystic fibrosis rebuked Steve Barclay over NHS staff working conditions as he visited a London hospital.

The Health Secretary was confronted by Sarah Pinnington-Auld when he met her and her daughter Lucy during a visit to King’s College University Hospital in Denmark Hill on Monday.

During a conversation beside Lucy’s hospital bed, Ms Pinnington-Auld, a teacher from Bridge, Kent, could be heard telling Mr Barclay that staff are “absolutely amazing” but pressures on the NHS are affecting the care for her daughter, whose recent bronchoscopy had to be delayed due to a lack of beds.

“The damage that you’re doing to families like myself is terrible,” she said, adding that the recent disruption to her daughter’s treatment was “agony”.

“The doctors, the nurses, everyone on the ward is just brilliant considering what they’re under, considering the shortage of staff, considering the lack of resources,” she added.

“And I think, for me, that’s what’s really upsetting actually, because we have a daughter with a life-limiting, life-shortening condition and we have some brilliant experts and they’re being worked to the bone, and actually the level of care they provide is amazing, but they not being able to provide it in the way they want to provide it because the resourcing is not there.”

The 43-year-old told Mr Barclay that the UK is “so lucky” to have the NHS as she expressed concerns about its privatisation.

“I’m so scared about my daughter’s future, thinking about what you guys might do to the NHS and what that means in exact terms for the length of her life, because if you don’t prioritise the NHS, I don’t know what chance she has for a longer life,” she said.

Speaking to the PA news agency about the conversation afterwards, she said: “I wanted to make it clear that the NHS staff are absolutely amazing.

“They’re so hard-working and incredible and are doing an absolutely brilliant job under such intense pressures like underfunding and understaffing.

The NHS is braced for what could be its worst day since the early weeks of the pandemic.

Thousands of paramedics and 999 call handlers are joining the 24-hour walkout on Wednesday, after final talks between the Health Secretary and union leaders failed to resolve the dispute. Hospitals have already declared critical incidents and NHS leaders are warning that patients’ safety is at risk.

Thousands of paramedics and 999 call handlers are joining the 24-hour walkout on Wednesday, after final talks between the Health Secretary and union leaders failed to resolve the dispute.

Hospitals have already declared critical incidents and NHS leaders are warning that patients’ safety is at risk.

At the heart of the stalemate is the Government’s refusal to even agree to discuss pay, let alone negotiate a more favourable deal for NHS workers.

The strategy of ministers is clear – to dig in and let the waves of industrial action roll on until the public eventually turns against nurses and paramedics.

It is a dangerous game for the Government to play. And, apparently, the public can see right through it.

The latest polling shows public opinion is actually hardening against ministers.

A Savanta survey published on Tuesday showed net support for nurses has actually increased, by seven points, since the walkouts were announced last month. More than half of people now blame the Government for the strikes.

The Government is playing a dangerous game on strikes, and the public aren't falling for it.

The only way to resolve a dispute is through negotiation. This is even the clear advice of the Government’s own Risk Register in lessening the impact of industrial action.

Yet despite Rishi Sunak and Steven Barclay insisting their “door is open”, the Prime Minister has taken a hands-off approach, while the Health Secretary will talk about anything but pay when he meets union leaders.

At Cabinet on Tuesday, with the NHS on the brink, the main topic of conversation was the King’s coronation next year. There was not a word about strikes.

At the Liaison Committee, Mr Sunak hinted that the Government would be more “constructive” with unions next year, when a fresh pay review for public sector workers comes around.

But given the intransigence of the Government so far, why would the unions – or the public – ever believe it?
