Nothing junior about leading an arrest team. Nothing junior about looking after the entire hospital overnight. Nothing junior about deliviring life-saving treatment. This is a welcome change, part of the cultural shift towards greater respect towards the profession.
🚨We have a new title: BMA Residents 🚨.A long time coming, and after much hard work, junior doctors will now be called Resident Doctors. This new title better reflects their huge range of skills and responsibilities. Read more about the change here 👇.

Doctors have faced the steepest real terms pay cuts in the entire private/public sector. We are asking for pay restoration, something the average worker has already achieved. You can't cut the waiting list without properly valuing NHS staff. @wesstreeting must negotiate with docs

Mr Streeting had no response that the demand from doctors is to only be paid 22.67ÂŁ/hr. That too, it doesn't have to be all in one go. He could be in the room negotiating a path to full pay restoration right now. The public are on doctors' side.
That doctor you saw at 7pm on a Friday in hospital?. They were paid £18.62/hr; for CPR, giving critical treatments, making life or death decisions for your loved ones. They’re asking for £22.67/hr. A bargain for a fully qualified dr. @wesstreeting thinks that’s unreasonable.
