£2,162 a year. That was doctors' London allowance in 2005. It still is today. Rent is up 128%. Childcare is up 133%. The allowance? 0%. London needs doctors who can afford to live here. BMA Indicative ballot closes 30th November. Vote here: bit.ly/BMAVoteLondonWeightin…

We don’t begrudge our hard working NHS colleagues their London Weighting allowance. But London is no cheaper for doctors. Doctors deserve parity to mitigate the higher cost of living and working in the capital. Doctors in London, vote in our indicative ballot now 👇🏼

NHS pressures affect patients year-round, not just in winter. Consultants see this every day. There’s no pressure free time to strike. But waiting won’t fix the problems facing consultants or the NHS. That’s why we're planning to strike.

Burnout for doctors remains rife with resident doctors and GPs at particular risk. The government has to act now to tackle long-standing problems facing doctors and the NHS. Find out more thedoctor.bma.org.uk/article…

"You’ve got consultants stuck in a hamster wheel unable to provide better services for their patients.” Dr Mike Henley, Consultants Committee deputy chair on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. The Government needs to engage consultants meaningfully to avoid strike action. Taking months, or years, to solve the problems is not an option.

In an independent BMA poll, 9/10 members of the public said consultants should be paid competitively, comparable to competitor countries, 9/10 wanted their care overseen by a senior doctor. 84% were worried about the long term stability of the NHS without this. Link follows.
