Frontline NHS workers still have the unswerving support of many people in the county who instead put the spotlight on politicians and leaders to find solutions to huge problems in the health service.

As a series of strikes involving ambulance staff and nurses rumble on the Shropshire Star asked people in the streets of Shrewsbury what they think - and there were strong opinions among NHS workers, patients and members of the public who are calling for change.

But Mrs Davis, who has the all-clear now, thinks it is time for big reforms to try to solve ongoing issues. An angry but anonymous passer-by on Friday added that he thought money should be spent on life and death issues, not things like gender re-assignment and cosmetic surgery. "The strikers need more money but this is the wrong way to do it," he said."I think they could go back to work - everyone is fighting for money now, firefighters, driving instructors. The country hasn't got enough money to pay for them all.

"I am much more concerned about money being wasted on things that are not needed and on peripheral things. It is not going to attract more doctors who are leaving the service."

I thought the median age around here was 48 rather than 72?

Problem with the nhs is the management and how it’s run. I’ve never known a business so too heavy with directors and administrators. Seems every department has board. That’s where the money goes syphoned off by ineffective managers

The problem is the sub contractors who are making millions out of the nhs and no one bats an eye lid

What a broad range of respondents between 50 and 75 years old. Most people support the NHS in its current form. There is one party to blame for deterioration in waiting lists and it's the Conservatives
