Due to personal commitments including surgical exams, I will sadly not be seeking re-election onto the UKRDC.

I've dedicated my life to the BMA over the past two years and unfortunately over the next year I won't have the capacity to do the role justice. 1/6

Bookmarking this for the next time he suggests doctors shouldn't be paid more.

P.S. we support the tube drivers.

[Andrew Jordan @Andrew_Jordan_]

GMB negotiating team are ready to meet BMA management negotiators but a fundamentally different approach to that taken by the CEO and Board to date is needed.

Additional investment in the offer to BMA staff is required.

There MUST be an end to below inflation pay awards.

[James Steen @BMA_James_Steen]

Realistic and reasonable about what the country can afford?!😂

You’re paying assistants to doctors more than you’re pay doctors;

Day one pay in central London:

🔸Newly qualified Doctor:
£20.36 / hour

🔹Newly qualified Physician’s Assistant:
£28.86 / hour

That’s 41.75% more.

[Dr Shivam Sharma @DocShivSharma]

Has the government forgotten its job?

It’s meant to provide patients with specialists.

Pulling training posts for doctors is a massive own goal from a government that claims it wants to cut waiting lists.

How do you reduce waiting lists without specialists?

[Mike Henley 🤨 @trentconsultant]

3.5%? Yeah, right. MP’s 5%. Pay stats prior to 3.5%, Office of National Statistics and NHS digital figures.

[Dr Shivam Sharma @DocShivSharma]

MP pay uplift 5%.
Doctor pay uplift 3.5%.

The money is always there for MPs, not for anyone else.

[Dr Tal Ellenbogen @Tal_Ellenbogen]

@RoyLilley @parthaskar @wesstreeting @DrLKVaughan @DrAsifQasim @PaedED @indranilc @DrSelvarajah @iDrSunny @AliJaneMoore @Rezaidi @ShrillaB Next ballot will be online rather than postal and will last 12 months. Given the BMA managed to get over 35k (>65% of members) to vote online on the Gov offer within a few days, I think @wesstreeting knows that the BMA have what could be considered a multi-year strike mandate now

[The BMA @TheBMA]

It’s a YES.

An overwhelming 93.4% of resident doctors in England have voted for further strike action, giving a clear mandate to continue pressuring the Government on jobs and pay in 2026.

The overall turnout was 52.54%.

Stay tuned for updates on our next steps.

[Dr Tal Ellenbogen @Tal_Ellenbogen]

There are few certainties in life:
- death
- taxes
- doctors getting a real terms pay cut if we don’t pass this strike ballot

Return your @BMAResidents ballot today and ensure all your colleagues do too!

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

This is very good news for Scotland. I am grateful to everyone involved in the discussions. This ensures that the progress we are making in NHS recovery can be maintained.

[Dr Tal Ellenbogen @Tal_Ellenbogen]

@AliJaneMoore Resident doctor pay is already higher in Scotland (& Wales) than in England, and this deal, which is well deserved, will increase the gap further. See charts.
@wesstreeting has no leg to stand on. If he doesn't want to match Ireland or Australia, what about the devolved nations?

[Dr Tal Ellenbogen @Tal_Ellenbogen]

Good news for doctors, patients and the NHS in Scotland.

Spot the difference 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿.

Strikes can and should be avoided, but they require politicians to negotiate seriously and in good faith, unlike @wesstreeting.
