Junior doctors in England, thank you for voting in the referendum and making your voices heard. The votes are tallied and 65.97% of you voted to ACCEPT the Government’s offer.
Your committee met this evening to ratify the result. We’ll be in touch soon about what happens next.

Disappointingly, despite hearing about further offers from the Government, and a readiness to re-enter talks within 20 minutes which transpired to take more than 20 days,
The Government have failed to table a new pay offer and therefore we are calling for further strike action
Doctors, we pulled out all the stops to avert this round of strikes.
We asked the health secretary to extend our strike mandate for four weeks so we could keep talking in good faith. But she declined, leaving us no choice but to announce a 5-day full walkout from 24-28 Feb.

Full time: Medics 4 - 1 Withy
Lots of injuries today and as the game went on we seemed to lose intensity as it got away from us. Nice to actually finish a game this year.

Withy hosting Manchester Medics today in the MSMFL. For the fourth weekend in a row, this should be our first game of the year
Haven't been keeping an eye on the weather but the game should probably be on maybe. I don't wanna get out of bed for no reason again ffs

BMA consultant members in England have voted 51% against the offer in the pay referendum.
The result demonstrates that consultants still have considerable concerns about the offer.

Thank you to everyone who has taken part in strike action over the last week.
Because of pay and conditions, hard working doctors are being driven out of their profession and the Government must come to the table and address their concerns.

Our HATTERS dropped out of the cup after a 4-0 home defeat to Manchester Medics. The damage was done in the first half as AFC struggled. A hugely improved second half performance was the main bonus from the game.
Manchester Medics FC Old Boys retweeted
We all hope and pray for our leader and captain Tom Lockyer, who is thankfully responsive and has been taken to hospital.
We don’t know the full extent of what happened and what the next steps are at this stage, but we thank Bournemouth and the medical staff on both sides for their immediate response, which was absolutely amazing.
We are sorry to all supporters present that players from both sides were in no state of mind to continue with the game after seeing their much-loved team-mate and friend taken off like that, and staff could not carry on with managing the game in such circumstances having had to deal with the situation.
We thank everyone for the wonderful applause and singing of Locks’ name inside the stadium at such a difficult time.
Now is the time for all of our players, staff and supporters to come together as we always do and give our love and support to Tom and his family.
Our thoughts are with him and them all. 🧡

We have a message for the Government. It’s time for them to make us a credible offer on doctors’ pay.
If they want to talk to us they can step outside, where @ERunswickBMA is preparing for our rally this afternoon

Thank you all the volunteers who made grassroots football possible this weekend, players, coaches, club officials, league officials, spectators, and match officials. Thank you for all that you do this, and every weekend. – at South Shields, England

NHS privatisation takes place in many different ways.
Dr Anna Warrington explains how successive governments understaffing the NHS, forces the NHS to pay for private contractors who charge more than NHS staff charge.
This is a must watch to better understand NHS privatisation.
