Petition Negotiate with junior doctors on pay and start with offer of inflation-proof pay
Currently the Government is not negotiating because the junior doctors are striking and because of their pay demand. This is not constructive and we think the Government should enter negotiations and increase pay to ensure we retain good and well-motivated doctors in the NHS, and protect patients.
More details
Conflict between junior doctors and the Government is in no-one’s interest. No group of workers can accept year-on-year erosion of pay. We will lose doctors if they are not paid adequately and this could destroy the NHS which the Government claims to fully support and regularly praises.
