Ellie Reeves was there with other Labour Councillors and candidates - They were only meeting there before going off to canvas locally. I went and spoke briefly to Tori Griffiths who told me that Renata and Victoria (Dulwich Hill Councillors) were aware of the issue and intend to vote again expansion of the gala. She said I could contact her and/or them regarding concerns. -

Half my family are medics, going back generations, and none of them would ever have gone, or would now go, on strike. I know times have changed, but my family knew what they were signing up for, and accepted the detriment to their families and the hours (which, in the junior years, were way longer when they are now)... because it was not only a vocation, but a stable career for life. And they felt a genuine duty of care to their patients, whom they often put before their own children. I can only conclude that entry-level junior doctors are more entitled these days. Plus, it's insensitive to nurses, who really do deserve a lot more money and recognition. There are issues other than pay, like the lack of available posts, and having to move around the country, but they can be improved without a strike. I don't think the right people are being recruited into the profession anymore. We're all on lower wages and paying more tax than we were ten years ago, but many of us just have to suck it up, work our socks off and get on with it. -
Beglfire I start, I have a lot of respect for Doctors and owe my life to them after various mishaps over the years. I am however getting a jaded view of them continuing to run the strike ballot next week in the middle of what is turning into a bad winter for the NHS. Of course they may vote to not strike, but personally feel it is irresponsible timing to consider it as hospitals are already struggling. Today the BMA warned of scaremongering over the current flu outbreak (BBC News - BMA warns of flu 'scaremongering' ahead of doctor strikes - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y22yzl6y6o) but just seeing how many people I know are going down with it, that feels like poor spin by the BMA. How do others feel ?
