Supporting Junior Doctors on Strike

 


It was brilliant to be out this morning supporting the British Medical Association Junior Doctors picket line at Wigan Infirmary!

Solidarity with local junior doctors and ALL junior doctors across the country who are fighting for full pay restoration now.

Just as we supported striking NHS ancillary workers in 2018, we will always stand up for our NHS and its amazing staff.

Junior doctors have experienced a cut of more than 25% to their salaries since 2008/09. We clapped for them during the Covid-19 pandemic; now let’s pay them properly!
