Public Urged To Avoid 'Risky Behaviour' As Doctors' Strike Begins | Good Morning Britain

[@kanelt2669]

As a junior doctor, I loved reading these comments. We love our patients and I've devoted my entire life to helping people, because I love people and think they're amazing. We are so tired, overworked (so much overtime with no pay), underpaid and I actually struggle to even pay for my exams yearly (thousands of pounds) on £14/hr. These comments just really beautiful and it's so nice to know the public are behind us. I love you guys and please know the last thing we want to do is strike!

[@Andy-qe6kk]

Thank you for you do. I support your efforts to get better pay and conditions. Solidarity with the doctors.

[@christinefiedor3518]

I thank you for your dedication and I believe the doctors deserve a rise. But 35% is an outrageous demand and the system cannot sustain it. I believe this country is perilously close to bankruptcy for a number of reasons. When I entered the nursing profession I went in with my eyes wide open and certainly didn’t go into for the money. Am TOTALLY against strike action and consider it a dereliction of duty to do so. MORE people will die. And if the health professions are not careful they will gradually lose public support. One other thing that’s actually getting more coverage is that the calibre of both doctors and nurses is going downhill which is a huge worry for all.

[@ciderman1950]

And the vast majority of the people love you for what you do for us. We are 100℅ on your side. The government just doesn't care about ordinary people. We should all be on strike. A general strike is what is needed in this country. This government forgets they are there to serve us not the other way around. People should not be scared of their government the government should be scared of the people.

The UK system is nuts. In Canada doctors & other essential staff can’t strike but if they don’t agree to a contract they go to binding arbitration with an independent arbitrator… they get paid much better that UK doctors and this system has worked much better for workers than in the UK where strikes are allowed for essential staff. The idea of doctors striking is utterly insane. It’s a terrible system.

[@randypanthegoatboy2]

No, in this case, the system isn't the issue. Please don't be dim. Sure, the system can be improved, but the problem is the government siphoning off money whilst slowly moving toward a private healthcare system behind the scenes. Wake up.

[@anne-mariemarshall]

The whole system is riddled with problems, incompetence and bullying. Short term we need urgent reform and a huge cash injection to prevent a total meltdown of the NHS. Longer term, a system like the Canadian one where wage rises are settled completely independently (with no government fiddling or pressurising) would be very helpful. If we had used such a system, junior doctors, nurses, ambulance staff, teachers, police, fire service and every other public service worker would have had years worth of fair pay rises and would not need to be making large pay increases because pay would not have been allowed to fall so far behind.

[@christinefiedor3518]

@@georgechambers4617 sorry but I trained in the nhs but it wasn’t until lived and worked overseas that I realised that are actually many countries with infinitely better health systems than the uk. In the case of the US their system is very divisive and unfair. I migrated to Australia and there, while not perfect it knocks spots off the NHS . And I have a heavy heart in saying that! Out here people earning over a certain income are taxed extra if they don’t have private health insurance. But they still have the choice of using the public system. The private system helps to take the pressure off the public system. However, there is a risk of over servicing. That’s happening in the uk too.private health is a lot to do with profit. A number of smart people are simply saving the money that they would spend each month on private health insurance in a seperate bank account for health care should they need it. Some years ago I suffered a very major stroke . I was treated in a public hospital as a public patient and I could not fault the care and attention I received. Finally, the pay and working conditions, especially the work/life balance have always been much better out here. Why do think health care professionals leave the nhs to come here? Though I do believe this continual “poaching” needs to stop. The UK needs to train more of own plus the fees incurred are now obscenely expensive because university has lost focus and has become a business. But that’s another issue for another day.

It shows how much doctors really care

Doctors care more than a kettle.

[@kanelt2669]

We literally devote our lives to practice medicine and care for people. You don't think I could have gone into banking? You don't think we get pouched by law firms? We do it BECAUSE we care. God that comment is such a slap in the face. The last thing we want to do is strike. But we've had a massive pay cut over the last 10 years, we work extra hours we're not paid for, moved around every year, pay thousands for exams each year, >70K in debt, studied for 5-7 years for the privilege and we've had enough.
