The government has been branded "an irrational partner" by the junior doctors' union, who say ministers' refusals to negotiate while strikes are ongoing are "madness".

The trainee medics began three days of industrial action on Wednesday after negotiations between the British Medical Association (BMA) and the Department of Health broke down earlier this month.

Reports suggested an additional pay rise of around 3% - on top of the 8.8% recommended by the independent pay review body in April - was put on the table by the government.
