Senior doctors in England will be consulted on taking industrial action if the government’s 1% pay rise offer is not improved. The British Medical Association says it will ask members about stopping paid and unpaid overtime if there is not a figure nearer 4%. The Royal College of Nursing has already said it will consider balloting over industrial action. It has called for a 12.5% pay rise this year.
In summary, the taxpayer is being held to ransom by those who have been hailed by some as “heroes” and lauded over the past 16 months.
