The BBC has objected to being described as state media. I just heard the news report on the doctors' strike. Entirely one-sided, repeating government lies about preconditions preventing negotiations, reporting demands for pay rises without explaining it's only pay restoration…

It speaks volumes that the @BMA_JuniorDocs representatives have done multiple media appearances today answering grilling questions with poise but no government representatives have showed their face. #JuniorDoctorsStrikes

Me and my wife proudly standing with the “junior” doctors ⁦@wuthnhs⁩ this morning. Pay them what they deserve ⁦Rishi Sunak⁩ ⁦Steve Barclay⁩ , they are there for us when we need them, time for you to be there for them!!!

We are one of the richest countries in the world. We should be paying NHS staff fairly. Retweet if you agree! #VoteReject

Get round a table and chat about it then, Stevie. Unilaterally refusing to just makes you seem a bit... shit at your job? (PS your basic MP salary has gone up 31% since you were somehow elected in 2010.)

Listen to Nurses. The NHS is being destroyed by this govt. We will stand by you, please stand with us! #VoteReject #SOSNHS

Day 2 of the biggest strike in NHS history and the second day the Government has refused to put up a minister to answer questions

Here is what Sunak's government are offering the doctors... Yes, you are reading that correctly, an increase in their hourly rate of between 18p (year 1) to 56p (year 8).

🚨Junior doctors strikes🚨 All journalists - please don’t forget to mention in your reporting that Health Secretary Steve Barclay wants junior doctors restricted to a derisory crappy 2% with inflation at 10.4% Balance is important!

Are news shows deliberately avoiding telling viewers Health Secretary Steve Barclay wants junior doctors restricted to a derisory crappy 2%? I’m not seeing this mentioned anywhere

LBC Kate Andrews Iain Dale 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧⚒️ She struggles to understand because she isn't a frontline NHS worker, she's peddling her Tory ideology. It's very simple. Not enough staff. Pay needs restoring.

If your position is defensible, you’d welcome any opportunity to defend it.

Final Good Morning Britain poll result❗️ A whopping 83% of the public stand in solidarity with junior doctors striking for pay restoration and safer healthcare for all of us. 💙 #JuniorDoctorsStrike #NHS

The Conservative party has outdone itself by managing to cram this unfathomable amount of boll**** into sixty seconds. If like me you’ve had enough of this Government’s bull**** RT this widely. It won’t be appearing on BBC1

NHS doctor Dr Sonia Adesara 💙 calls out Jacob Rees-Mogg on #JuniorDoctorsStrike

I’m sitting in the ‘business centre’ (hilarious name for this room) of a hotel, writing my next newsletter. I’m happy to do this- fighting for the NHS is my vocation, and I think everyone needs to understand what the politicians are doing, and how profoundly they’re failing the..

Has a single news show actually pointed out this week that Health Secretary Steve Barclay wants junior doctors restricted to a derisory crappy 2% with inflation at 10.4%? Have I missed it?

Dr Julia Grace Patterson💙 Do join EveryDoctor they are fighting to keep our NHS publicly run and owned.
