Junior doctors can “make more serving coffee than saving patients”, the British Medical Association has warned ahead of a 72-hour walkout which begins tomorrow
Junior doctors can “make more serving coffee than saving patients”, the British Medical Association has warned ahead of a 72-hour walkout which begins tomorrow.
The BMA said junior doctors in England have suffered a 26.1 per cent real-terms cut to their pay since 2008/09 and is campaigning for pay restoration. “Looking ahead, I have to move to a different hospital in a different city as part of my training but have no idea how I’ll fund this if I need to move house. I can’t even afford to pay for the exams I need to progress in my career.”
“We are fully supportive of any worker getting an inflation-matching pay rise, and it is worth thinking on the fact that the Government has cut junior doctors’ pay by so much that they could earn more serving coffee.
