According to a Govt minister on Sky News this morning, pay rise is coming out of existing NHS budget, which is certainly going to help reduce work loads on staff and goes against the deal supposedly reached with unions.
That's dreadful.
All it will mean is more posts will be cut creating bigger waits and more pressure on staff, no money to improve infrastructure causing created inefficiencies etc.
It will all get worse and worse.

As people like Hunt and Sunak are not stupid, one has to assume this is the plan.

AHPs are embarrassing time and time again letting nurses do all the hard work for them striking while they sit in their warm offices.
It's easy to accept something you haven't fought for. Disgraceful offer, get a backbone
Who are you having a go at??
Since when did AHPs spend their day sitting "in nice warm offices"? Your post is offensive and goady.

Pat Cullen negotiated her way down from 19% to 10% to 7.5% without any formal negotiations. She thought she was being crafty by being magnanimous and reasonable with a crowd of devious elitist scum. Who was advising her??!!
They way she was goin I wouldn't have been surprised if she had ended up cleaning the toilets in Downing!

Tory elite win again....you people voted them in!
Slaves and masters mentality!
Out manoevering a bunch of kindly nurses with their hands together begging for a payrise wasn't really a stretch for a bunch of elitist psychopaths Bread n' butter stuff for these guys.
They held out rightly before negotiations and knew they'd got the unions who would accept a little bit more as they had everyone exhausted
Now it's over...a rebellion won't work.... dare I say it with a mainly female workforce?
Watch the doctors get a lot more...and nurses helped them.....Plus ca change.....!

I'm GMB. We were about to strike but we're told to stand down because we had finally been invited to the discussion table. Or are you suggesting we strike without the support of our own unions because RCN are @Jbb999 ? I also don't know what office you're referring to? There are clinical areas of a hospital other than wards. @jbb

Office/clinic area ...all not outside. You're not to blame for Union decisions. Have you ever been on a picketing.
If it happens, which I doubt at least nurses may be taken out of AFC and in a better position position in future.
Yous may have to fight your own battles then......rather when the argument starts....always pushing the nurse forward

I'm done.
34 years of Nursing. 34 years of abuse in my body
I know have a spinal injury which was probably caused by lifts that we were trained to do but are now illegal.
34 years of missed Christmases and Easters. 34 years of irregular shift patterns so never being able to commit to anything on a regular basis.
34 years of sweat and tears.
Then came covid which has finished me off.
Cant afford to retire so will.have to look for something else.
I shall vote no for my colleagues but will also be walking away. When the union doesnt represent its members and nobody locally cares I need to walk away.
I am saddened by the fact that nurses have to use food banks. I am also disappointed by the infighting between staff whatever happened to team work for the benefit of our patients.
