The BMA are offering their own staff just 2%. All as they are taking their members out on strike over a deal worth more. It's hypocrisy: pure and simple. https://t.co/1jpdqtPkVK

In light of criticism Rachel Reeves has received for not telling us all in advance of the Budget about improved tax receipts, here is a salutary reminder of how Chancellor George Osborne handled his big surprise announcement in the November 2015 Spending Review. #Budget25 1/7

Great news. PCCs have been a waste of time and money for more than a decade. It's right that the role is being abolished and that money is going into actual policing instead.
EXCL: Police and Crime Commissioner roles will be abolished, ministers will announce today The Home Office will confirm plans to get rid of PCCs and hand over oversight of policing to mayors and councils

The BMA regard a 28.9% pay rise as ‘crumbs’. They do not acknowledge the sacrifices made by taxpayers - or my responsibility to other NHS staff paid far less than doctors. They are trying to hold the NHS and our country to ransom and we can’t give in to this behaviour.
As we told you earlier, divisive tactics won’t work. All residents deserve the next step on the journey to FPR. Crumbs like this don’t cut it. Neither do recommendations for more below inflation pay awards next year. You have the power to avert these strikes. Act now.
