Hearing the minimum score needed for an internal medicine training interview has shot up from 15 last year to 22 this year.
Essentially a 50% increase in the number of points required just to get an interview is criminal.
Completely pathological and unrealistic expectations.
Too important to that we’re told we shouldn’t be allowed to strike. Too unimportant to be paid correctly.
Great support today at King George hospital from public and residents alike. Drs don’t want to strike but inaction from the government has forced us here.
@BMAResidents
Doctors are picketing at Wes Streeting's local hospital today.
Lots of public have been showing their support for doctors.
Mr Streeting must get back around the negotiating table.
There is a deal that can be done.
@BHRUT_NHS stint ✅ Learnt a lot, hopefully made a bit of improvement for resident doctors & made a few friends along the way. Capped off by a great dinner at @MariaAs515’s & a very fun intra hospital cricket match. To the Royal Free next!
