Tories If you're white Ukrainians we'll bring you into our homes & stop buying oil from your persecutors. If you're from Africa/Middle-East we'll send you to concentration camps in Rwanda while selling bombs to the people who blew up your home. But we're definitely not racist.

Nothing in the five headline stories that led on the BBC News at Ten about the Junior Doctor strike tomorrow. About 50% of the NHS medical workforce and… silence. Odd.

We strike today for our patients, our colleagues, and our NHS. Please visit a picket line near you to show support! #SOSNHS #JuniorDoctorsStrike #DoctorsStrike #NHSstrikes

Overwhelming public support for the #JuniorDoctorsStrike this morning. Doctors need full pay restoration after real terms pay cut of 26% since 2008. They are worth more than £14.09/hr. The BMA

I’ve just completed a 12 hour shift covering orthopaedic FY2 on call. Juggling jobs, making complex decisions, difficult discussions with patients and relatives. This is not a job that should have pay parity with someone making coffee. #PayRestoration for junior doctors.

The Government has left us with no option but to strike. Today thousands of us went to Whitehall and made it clear: We are not backing down. #JuniorDoctorsStrike

Here’s my payslip as a first year doctor in 2005, next to a first year doctor colleague’s in 2023. 18 years later, their take home salary is less than mine was. I lived for free in hospital accommodation and had a fraction of their student loan. #JuniorDoctorsStrike

Treat junior doctors better or they will go somewhere that does. It’s that simple.

oh this is excellent! 🫶🪧🩺✊#JuniorDoctorsStrikes

Whatever gasp you take when you hear doctors are asking for a 26% pay rise, keep that same gasp when you realise that’s what this govt have taken away from them since they came to power! One quarter less pay. Now ask, why is there a staffing crisis?

Absolutely incredible turnout at today’s protest in London! Teachers, doctors, civil servants, university workers and more striking together. We demand fair pay for ALL 👊 #EnoughIsEnough

Imagine there are two jobs under the same employer. Imagine that they are tasked with virtually identical day-to-day roles - assessment, investigations, formulating management plans. Only Job 1 has the right to prescribe, and only job 1 has to do nights/weekends by default.

I have rarely felt the fury that I feel at todays Department of Health and Social Care “announcement” on social care. A massive retreat from what was already bare minimum first steps in long term reform. So on top of previously announced delays to the cap and a better means test, here’s what we now have..

The junior doctors operating on your appendix are paid just £66.55 between them. For a potentially life-saving procedure, which lasts about an hour. Is this a fair price to put on high quality healthcare? #PayRestoration #JuniorDoctorsStrike

This is misleading. I am a 3rd year doctor at Core Training level or Specialist Registrar Level 1. Here is my payslip. I get paid £19 an hour. My salary is £40257 a year. Not £55900. #PayRestoration @BMA_JuniorDocs DoctorsVote 🦀 #TellThemAgain
