“This offer doesn’t do everything in one go, but we’ve never asked for everything in one go.” Vivek Trivedi on the junior doctor pay offer in England and building back up the workforce.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi I've worked in NHS 26years as a band 2, now a band 3. I get a couple of quid less than a junior doctor. I'm amazed after all their Uni fees and med school training & other fees they only get a little over 15 quid ! Is it really better pay ? You get more working for Aldi / LIDL

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi Doctors have always been reasonable when it came to negotiations. This is a positive first step towards full pay restoration but it is just the beginning. Doctors will expect significant inroads being made towards fixing pay next year or we will have to re-enter dispute.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi What a joke. They folded like 2016.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi Well done for persevering through these tough times. As for all the comments about doctors being greedy… let private healthcare come in to UK and you’ll understand what medical greed looks like. Please respect the fact that Drs work insanely hard for the publics benefit.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi Will you change your twitter handle to resident doctors?

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi Well done for your persistence in claiming what resident doctors are rightly owed and best of luck for future negotiations.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @TheBMA @_VivekTrivedi Paid for with pensioners lives!

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi It’s about time they settled and with further threats to strike it shows their greed and lack of care for patients.

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi So you fuckers are planning to screw patients again. How about some productivity gains??

@BMA_JuniorDocs @_VivekTrivedi tip of the iceberg...they are greedy
