While workload soars, junior doctors pay has been cut by more than a quarter.

Adding insult to injury, junior doctors were offered a paltry “pay award” of 2%

A crippling cost-of-living crisis, burnout, and below inflation pay awards are driving hard working doctors out of their profession, at a time when we need them more than ever. 

That's why we’re calling for full #PayRestoration

No-one can be expected to stay in a high-pressured job where your earnings are being eroded year on year

The government chose to ignore the recommendations of the pay review body. They refused to meet with @BMA_JuniorDocs

Junior doctors worked flat out during the pandemic and continue to work tirelessly for our patients.

After graduating with more than £100,000 of debt, it's not right that doctors battle to make ends meet on £14/hour.

It is deeply worrying that 79% of doctors are often thinking about leaving the NHS.

With poor pay and conditions, who can blame them?

Two thirds of doctors are actively searching for a way out ✈️

#PayRestoration is needed now ✊
