The British government on Thursday succeeded in limiting the length of an upcoming strike by nurses, after the health department took legal action against a trade union over the dispute.
The final day of a 48-hour strike called by the Royal College of Nursing (RCN), which begins on the evening of April 30, would be unlawful as a vote to strike is only valid for six months after a ballot, Judge Thomas Linden ruled.
