"Are you prepared to sit down with the BMA?” “Of course we are, we’ve tried multiple times” @RishiSunak falsely claiming to have tried to negotiate with us when in reality we've now asked in 10 separate letters to meet with Govt to discuss pay and every request has been rebuffed.

‘Even though they’re talking about a pay rise, this is in reality a brutal pay cut … we’re now thinking about the different types of actions we can take’ Our deputy chair of council @ERunswickBMA voiced the anger of our members at yesterday’s pay cut announcement @BBCBreakfast

We’ve written to @RishiSunak to offer his Government the opportunity to end the pay dispute with consultants in England, by attending talks facilitated by the conciliation service ACAS. #FixConsultantPay bma.org.uk/bma-media-centre/…

I talked about consultant's pay on @TimesRadio this morning – here are some charts to go with it 1. Consultants' pay has fallen about 21% in real terms since 2010. Their pay has been eroded more than that of other medical staff, and considerably more than the average salary
