If you are wondering why juniors & consultants are striking - this why 👇 Their pay has been comprehensively destroyed even vs CPI which is governments own preferred measure of inflation. Everyone else & comparator professions, not so much! Read the full 🧵& pls share / RT

I have aphantasia, and have been lucky enough to have met Prof Zeman to discuss the condition he coined. I'm still puzzled by how my internal world varies so profoundly from that of many others. One of life's great mysteries. bbc.co.uk/news/health-47…

MP's salary to rise by 7.1%, from £86,584 to £92,731, that’s before expenses! Inflation now at 3.9%, so why do MPs get an above inflation pay rise but public sector workers don’t? Rishi Sunak Gillian Keegan Sir Jeremy Hunt MP

Lee Anderson MP Lee...a little lesson Inflation means prices are going UP. Annual inflation was 3.9% to November. Which means that something costing 30p a year ago would now cost 3.9% MORE So people don't have "more money in their pockets" they have LESS🙄 Try my online maths school for help

Doctors. They’re doctors. Stop belittling & infantilising highly trained & skilled professionals who could be saving your life in a cardiac arrest, operating on your brain to remove a tumour, transplanting your kidney or ensuring your last days on earth are pain free & dignified.

When I was a Junior Dr, there was a Drs Mess, unlimited drinks, toast, biscuits, parking & I had a room to sleep in, all for free I was paid £19k/year which enabled me to buy a house for £63k. £19k is equivalent to £40k today Sadly the house I bought is now worth £350,000

When Junior Doctors are on £16 an hour and MP's are on £46 an hour. And raising the Junior Doctors pay by £4 an hour is unaffordable, even though they just raised MP's pay by £5 an hour. It's hard not to see the lie. RT if Junior Doctors NEED paying.

As a current NHS doctor I am sad & angry the govt thinks it can get away with subjecting junior doctors to a 26% real terms pay cut, while parroting faux moral outrage about patient safety. Rota gaps & unsafe staffing are endemic. You never campaigned against them, not once.
