A couple at the centre of an NHS salaries controversy were paid £120k for four months work in Yorkshire - weeks after receiving £1m in redundancy payouts.

The Yorkshire Post can now reveal that Chris Reed and Karen Straughair earned a total of £120k while in temporary management posts at Leeds hospitals.

Two months before starting in the city, they had received payments totalling £1m after their previous health service jobs in the North East were abolished.

A national pressure group called the salaries an “outrageous example of the ‘revolving-door’ culture in the NHS” while a Leeds MP said it was “entirely wrong”.
