TaxPayers’ Alliance responds to resident doctors voting to strike
“Taxpayers will be dismayed that junior doctors are threatening to walk out again, causing more disruption and delay for patients.
“Despite multiple inflation busting pay rises over the last few years and record amounts of money being put into the NHS, the doctors’ union is still chasing down more, seemingly without care for the dire state of the public finances.
“Ministers are reaping the consequences of caving into public sector pay demands. Any further boost in pay needs to be accompanied by significant reform to pensions, with all pension schemes moved to fully funded defined contribution models.”
