Why does doctors pay restoration seem to cost so much? Here’s some simple maths to help explain. We’re not asking the Government for extras, just for our pay to be whole again.

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust 16/ …comparing apples with oranges when they are INVARIABLY quoted by the media (or by politicians) comparing to other figures including from the BMA and others.

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust 17/ It may sound like I'm nitpicking but it makes a BIG difference - all unions generally start from the beginning of austerity (and use RPI as a better guide to household costs). The rest of the economy has caught up (as per the charts), now its the turn of the public sector.

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust 18/ Another annoyance is that politicians, the media, and even some of the experts above have conflated pay loss figures with pay restoration figures (or not corrected journos who make this mistake). There's a great little @thebma video explaining this 👇 x.com/TheBMA/status/…

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust The BMA 19/ So theoretically, even taking a pay erosion of 26.3% as per below (and remember thats using CPI) would require 35.7% to restore. Take £100. Erode it by 26.3% you have £73.70. To get back to £100 you need 35.7%. That's NOT a "pay rise" as such, just restoring what you had.

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust The BMA 20/ A poll yesterday (even by the pro-conservative government Daily Mail), showed the most important of @rishisunak's 5 priorities - by FAR - is REDUCE WAITING TIMES - even amongst Tory voters in 2019 . Those waiting list are really zip all to do with strikes (look at the 📈 )

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust The BMA Rishi Sunak 21/ There is quite literally not a whisker between @uklabour & @conservatives in 4 of Rishi's targets (debt, boats, inflation, growth) But where there is a HUGE gap is the NHS (25vs44%) 👇 The next election WILL be about the NHS.

And how those staff are valued is a #politicalchoice. Just like waiting lists - its a political choice to fund the NHS (and its staff) adequately, or allow it to go into terminally decline. Voters are watching 👀

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times Office for National Statistics (ONS) NHS England Transformation Tom Calver The Times and The Sunday Times Ben Zaranko Institute for Fiscal Studies Billy Palmer Nuffield Trust The BMA Rishi Sunak The Labour Party Conservatives 23/ Our NHS is in a DIRE state. None of this is due to striking NHS workers, or (just) covid, but due to political choices UK Prime Minister RT if you want this (or the next) government to make the choices to fix this mess now & properly #payrestoration #fixDDRB

DrG No they really weren’t - it’s a bit conerning you do t know how to look at a basic graph and work this stuff out. Look at the waiting listing more closely and you see WLs dip each winter - I suspect as people on the waiting list die whilst the NHS rots

Addendum 1 - Tweet 8 was intended to show this chart including a highlight 8/ You see there was an important * next to the data for nurses (& chart👇) Nurses 📷 😔 Nurses ⬇️📷 -8.4%*, prev -12.8% Both the numbers & the chart APPEAR to show an improvement. Thats due to a

Addendum 2 - Tweet 19 included the prior pay chart (to March '23); the correct pay chart (to June '23) is below 19/ So theoretically, even taking a pay erosion of 26.3% as per below (and remember thats using CPI) would require 35.7% to restore. Take £100. Erode it by 26.3%

Ofwat's letter confirming we have already paid water companies all of the money needed to build and operate a properly functioning sewage system. WCs 'certify' annual they've had our money. Q: Where's our money gone, what happened to it, when do we get a refund?

The large majority of PAs going through university now do not seem to have a clinical background. After all, that’s not the point in the role. But meanwhile Barry is very happy to admit to breaking the law and notes how this undermines strike action. Fantastic. Everything is

Stick with one speciality? That’s also not true Barry. This seems to have gone absolutely terribly for you. If you ever wanted evidence that not getting media training is extremely damaging then inadvertently admitting to breaking the law seems a good example.

Hi, Imperial NHS 💙, please may you clarify this for us? For any non regulated non doctor to request scans with ionising radiation it is illegal. What ‘special protocol’ do you have that evades the law?

Eilidh 🦀 “Don’t need overseeing so much…”. — SOOO telling about this consultant ant their ethos. “Clinical background…nursing,..physio..” — is he confused with ANP/ACP..? “Request MRIs” — considering in most/all hospitals MR requests are SpR/above or Cons only….. interesting 1/2
