“Surely this life, the training, responsibility, debt and crushing workload is worth more than £19 per hour?” The BMA said junior doctors start on salaries of between £25,000 and £30,000, compared to an MP’s £86,584.

But they have had real-terms pay cut of 26.1% from 2008 to 2023.

Ipsos polling today shows 54% of the public back the strike, which will go on until Sunday.

I’d like to invite Ms Vine to my school & teach for a term, then we can discuss her concept of “hard-working taxpayers”. In 15 years as a teacher, I’ve never known morale to be so low. Is it normal to work 50-60 hrs p/w and suffer real-terms pay cuts? #strikes #SupportStrikes #NEU

When I was teaching in Kuwait, I soon learnt unions are illegal so I formed my own.

Kuwait Union for New Teachers. (KUNTs)
They had a Saudi Arabian Department (S.A.D. KUNTs)
and the Dubai Association For Teaching (D.A.F.T. KUNTs)

We stand in solidarity with the strikers.

I can't believe the URL still works, this snippet from the Arab Times was from 2001
