    22% is a crap offer? How? Does it come with a load of contract changes or something?

    Because it's not another 22%, it's 4% +£1000 consolidated this year on top of the previously imposed award and 6% next year.

    It barely beats inflation and does next to nothing to address the >35% pay erosion over the last 15 years.

    Fixed amount pay rises are also worse than percentage pay rises because the money becomes less valuable over time with inflation. In 10 years £1000 will be worth less than now, hence why the government likes making such offers.

    The whole country has had pay erosion. I'm not sure why you lot think you should be immune to that.

    Do you actually want to be treated competently, or get fucked over by an incompetent doctor? If you saw the stats, conversations, and other information I see in my role mate you'd be wanting to punt these fuckers way more than 22%. We're losing a hell of a lot of highly trained and skilled UK doctors to other countries due to the hours and pay structure here being fucking laughable and brutal compared to most of non-third world Europe/Qatar/US etc

    Hence PAs and AAs, but we won't go into that bombscare.

    Even before you were to subject the data to any scrutiny it's not a proper like for like comparison anyway when you factor in the 20%+ pension contributions NHS workers get. Private sector you're lucky if you're on 5%.

    How is that relevant to pay erosion?

    My pay has dropped >25% in real terms and my pension is also worse than they used to be.

    Private sector wages have stayed roughly the same in real terms, as have their pension contributions.

    I.e. most people have roughly broken even, whilst I've lost a fucking shed load of money.

    Consultants rejected the first offer they got despite it being recommended and they are WAY less militant than us.

    We'll see.

    A pair of mums tried to talk to me about this Southport stabbing at my daughter’s swimming lesson. I genuinely had to say sorry I just want to watch the swimming to get them to stop trying to get me involved in the conversation.

    I thought the delay in a name coming out meant only one thing and sure enough, muzza confirmed.

    '17' is a poetic licence age I fear as well.

    Only one answer, privatise the NHS. Your salary will soon shoot up to match those useless bastards on the railway or tfl.*

    * I'm not saying you're useless** Doctors are very important.

    ** Actually, you might be shit at your job for all I know. But you get my point.

    17 year old originally from Cardiff is all I've seen.

    Which technically does make him a foreigner, actually.

    Yep news sites reporting born in Cardiff. But a 2000 follower US news AI account on Twitter has stated a name so right wing good ol frothing twitter are ready to absolute boot any Muslim around, from behind their keyboards as they tuck into a nice Chinese or Indian for tea.

    I saw a foreign news site say he was Jordanian, but the Telegraph are saying Rwandan.

    Fairly grim spectacle of every media outlet adding the words 'Taylor Swift' to their headlines for that sweet, sweet SEO.

    No, private sector wages keeping pace with inflation whilst public sector wages lose out massively over time to inflation.

    It's not comparing pay in absolute terms, it's comparing loss of pay as a percentage over time.

    Your contribution is as inane and pointless as always.

    That's fine, if the attitude of the general public and government is that the position of the NHS as a monopsony employer should be abused to continually suppress doctors' wages and pay them pittance compared to the international market, then doctors will leave (and are already doing so).

    You can have your healthcare provided by the B-tech Becky brigade with their zoology degree from Roehampton and their 2 years of """"""medical""""" training.

    DS may be willing to expand upon the kind of "care" you can expect to receive from PAs/AAs.

    The public will ultimately reap what they sow with this.

    Don't get me started on PAs/AAs, if they somehow link it back here I'm a goner. Disaster waiting to happen but it'll be every other cunt's fault bar the public.

    I get private healthcare though so lol
