Petition Ensure wages in NHS rise at same rate as National Minimum Wage (NMW).

The NMW is rising fast and will be £9/hour by 2020. Pay in the NHS has been frozen and currently restricted to a 1% rise. By 2020 there will only be a £2/difference between minimum wage jobs and new degree level medical professionals on band 5, in essential roles, saddled with student debt.
