Resident doctors warned they may not get jobs if they take too much sick leave ‘No one wants to have a reputation for being unreliable and not turning up,’ resident doctors were told in an email about sick days

"LABOUR 'SHIFTING GOALPOSTS ON PAY DEAL,' WARNS BMA"
#ChristopheDomec for @mstaronline.bsky.social

@bma.org.uk has accused #UnitedKingdom's Government of "moving the goalposts" at the last minute by cutting and delaying a pay deal for #ResidentDoctors.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social
One of the biggest #ResidentDoctors’ complaints is that they don’t earn enough to repay their student loans. Couldn’t the government introduce a policy whereby—in lieu of a pay rise and in exchange for them staying working in the NHS—their loans will be repaid by the Gov?

I feel #SirKeir is correct in giving consistently "going on strike" #ResidentDoctors an ultimatum now - across the board, the general public have had enough of this reckless behaviour of these doctors holding patients to ransom. Enough is enough.

Starmer gives doctors 48 hours to cancel strike or lose new jobs package The prime minister says the NHS could lose 1,000 extra training places if resident doctors go ahead with a six-day strike next week.

#ResidentDoctors are now losing this argument & starting to look greedy. Their pay has been increased significantly (30%) they have very secure employment and decent pensions.

Many will look across and think - I wish I had that.

Pick your battles docs.

#Starmer: “I think I can negotiate a good deal with #ResidentDoctors, but I still might have to cancel 1,000 training opportunities, cut off their water supply, murder their #children, bomb the universities where many of them qualified, blow up every journalist at the BMJ and Lancet, …

Streeting sets strike deadline for doctors and threatens training place withdrawal Health secretary warns resident doctors that future pay offers won't improve and training places will be withdrawn if BMA rejects deal by 31 March.

Would I be right in thinking #EmmaBarnett is opposed to the #ResidentDoctors strike?

Ms Barnett can only dream of earning a resident doctor’s salary … and wakes up screaming every time.

Today presenters or NHS doctors - which would the public miss most, after a Trump-led apocalypse?

#NHSEngland #DoctorsStrikes just my opinion, but I think MPs should follow a similar pay structure to #ResidentDoctors .. basic salary of £38k in their first year .. rising annually depending on attendance & voting record .. who deserves to be paid £94k / year .. MPs or doctors???

Is Wes Streeting planning to offer resident doctors a bigger pay rise than other NHS staff? There are claims that the health secretary will offer resident doctors a larger pay rise than other NHS staff – but the Department for Health and Social Care has strongly denied newspaper reports.

Resident doctors are striking over pay & blocked training posts. The media says they’re “putting patients at risk” — but the real risk is a system failing doctors and the NHS.

Resident doctors in England vote in favour of more strike action Members of the British Medical Association have backed more walkouts in the dispute over pay and jobs in England.

Bizarre to me that turnout for the vote was only 53%. What were the other 47% thinking? Surely they have a view? It concerns their own jobs for god's sake! Ludicrous that they just let others make the decision for them. #ResidentDoctors

Streeting on weekly BMA talks: 'We’re in a good place on jobs, but we are apart on pay' The health secretary has acknowledged significant differences remain in negotiations with the British Medical Association, despite progress on jobs.
