NHS junior doctors have accepted a new contract which gives them an 8.2% pay rise over four years in return for finally ending a four year-long dispute with ministers that triggered the first walkouts they had ever staged.

More than four in five (82%) of the junior doctor members of the British Medical Association who voted in a referendum on the new terms and conditions agreed to accept them.

About 39,000 junior doctors in England – all medics below the level of consultant – will benefit from the deal, which the BMA announced at its annual conference in Belfast.

How come Jeremy Hunt couldn’t negotiate that 4 years ago?

Answer: Because he doesn’t understand the word “negotiation”, which is why he thinks he can renegotiate the EU departure agreement.
