    But why did the BMA stand by and watch when the Tories were in power, and eroding their members pay?

    Agreed. But what about the 14 Tory years of silence?

    This doesn’t include uplift for the unsociable hours though.

    Are there any doctors on the bbs who could clarify their own argument in economic, moral and societal terms? Wonder if there is.

    Maybe they knew it would be pointless and now think Labour are a soft touch?

    I suppose you could be right. If I was a junior doctor, I'd be asking a few questions, the first one being Why?
    The second one, is the reason political.
    Imagine that, people dying so the BMA can push a political agenda.
