I am not truly sure I could blame either side of that.
The government were - and are - people who explicitly campaign with/for this shit. You could be angry if they didn't completely trash the country, its finances, and its health system to enrich themselves, after all that's their very agenda. Voters for them - much as I cannot understand why anybody would vote that way - would rightfully be angry if they did stuff like care for anybody but themselvs. The voters would have been lied to.
At the same time, the doctors can only do so much to protest while also ensuring patients get as much care as possible. I talk to a doctor frequently. She was recently diagnosed with advanced-stage breast cancer while around the same time her mum was also diagnosed with cancer. You know what she did? Go to work. And do long hours. More than she is paid for. Becaue there's no alternative. No one else can see to the patients. She would rather need to recuperate herself and care more for her mum, but there's just no option. That's so fucked up I lack words, and it also means the UK has a natural doctors problem: The ones that don't move away because fuck, why wouldn't you?!, they die off faster rather than slower or at least quit the field to protect their own health.
At some point, doctors end up having to force the issue. If they don't do it, things never improve.
