This is exactly the same pay rise that politicians gave themselves over the same timeframe. This is not a pay rise, merely restitution for a decrease in salary. A newly qualified doctor earns less than when i qualified 23 yrs ago- and I didn't have to pay university fees or have

Sometimes I wonder if the public really understands the consequences of doctors not getting pay restoration. Because it’s not gonna be worse for the doctors. System collapses —> in comes privatisation —> for profit medical care —> doctors get better pay —> public lose out

The key is in the smallprint. This includes extra out of hours payments and DOES NOT represent junior dr salaries. The 355 conservative MPs made an extra £15.2million salary since 2019 (news.sky.com/story/westmins…) but this is never considered when discussing MPs pay- Why the

Today it has been reported that during our first round of action in England mortality rate was 11.1% above the 5 year average. What they haven’t reported was that in Wales, where no strike action took place, mortality rate was 14% above the 5 year average. 1/3
