This isn’t a 22% pay rise. That’s a complete misrepresentation of this shit offer.
It also only applies to England.
Good luck to everyone staying in the UK. The NHS is fucked and so are you.
So this brings them up to what they should have been paid since 2010. No pay rises here.
A huge chunk of the “22%” figure is already pencilled in before any strikes happened. The pay rise being offered is actually 4%, with the remaining 18% being existing pay rises that would’ve happened alongside everyone else’s pay rises in the public sector.
I don’t have nearly as much sympathy for junior doctors as others in this thread seem to have. Not all strikes are equal.
Best to just let it fold, better value for money that way.
My wife voted to reject because she’s still paid less than PA’s.
Cowards.
