Please read the findings from the cost of living survey carried out earlier this year. This is very linked to unfolding of today with the general election fast approaching. As a profession we need to keep fighting for fair pay rises and better working conditions!

There is not a single Conservative MP who would be prepared to do their jobs for that salary.
If we’re not careful there won’t be a single junior doctor who is prepared to do so either.
