Ambulance workers across Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire vote to go on strike
They're the only trust in the country to not walk out so far
East of England Ambulance worker - which cover Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire have voted to go on strike.
The service is the only trust in the country to so far not to take action - but voted 86% in favour.
Paramedics, call handlers and other staff who are members of the GMB union have voted to join the industrial action, in a row over pay.
Representatives will meet to discuss dates in the next few days.
The union said its members are determined to campaign for better pay and are furious over the Government's "apparent attempts to smear" them over life and limb cover on strike days.
GMB officials will now meet in the coming days to discuss potential strike dates.
GMB organiser Lola McEvoy said: "East of England was the only ambulance trust in the country not to have been on strike - that will now change.
"As industrial action spreads to all corners of England, the Scottish and Welsh Governments have begun constructive talks with the GMB and seen walkouts suspended.
"Ministers in England don't seem to want to listen, leaving NHS workers and the English public being treated like second-class citizens.
"It's simple - talk pay now and make a decent offer for this year. Our members and the public are waiting."
Ambulance workers across large parts of England and Wales have taken strike action in recent weeks and another walkout is planned on Friday by members of Unison.
