"Patients trying to get a referral and not being able to be referred means that that list of those waiting for consultation and ultimately appointment will grow. Then, when they start referring again, that waiting list will go through the roof. *typo*" You don't join a waiting list until you've been referred. Unless you're thinking of that invisible list of people waiting to be seen by their GP. 
Other HCPs refer but most are done by GPs. | |||

"Maybe the government will negotiate to prevent these strikes? Just before you get too horny about Labour failing." I'll take that bet. 
Ps. One could NEVER get horny about Labour  | |||

"Surely every other public service union is looking at the 22% and thinking, we'll have a bit of that for our members? I see many more strikes and/or huge pay rises on the horizon but it's ok, the rich can bear their "fair share of the burden". " Pretty much all of the public sector under the coalition and the Tories were unjustly treated because the Tories chose them rather than their friends in the banks etc.. Why should any sector of society, the essential services be in a position where the private sector average pay increase was + 3.5% and teachers etc were -9% in that time? Do they have less bills, lower mortgages etc.. | |||

If that's resulted in them heading towards destitution, they should've considered that 5 or 10 years ago, but hey, let's trash the economy to a scale even Liz truss couldn't manage. | |||

No I don't, and that takes me back to my original point, if one sector gets 22% the rest will want the same. 1% wasn't imposed because only the police are unable to strike so nurses, firefighters and teachers have that right. This remains the 5th richest country the last time I checked, unfortunately we allow that wealth to spent unwisely in my opinion. Whilst we are at it, this probably inflated £20bn black hole that RR is on about could almost be wiped out in a year if we just suspended the foreign aid but hey, I'm sure that's all unacceptable to the vocal minority. Good night | |||

It's a bit of a nonsense you've predicated your post upon as it's one group who have been offered that again by the review body and if you can't understand why then you really aren't looking at what's gone in in the last 14 years.. | |||

Good night Shame you don't know what you're on about. Educate me" You've already been informed about pay freezes and 1% salary increases (for those at the top of their bands). You do know nurses never wanted to go on strike, and historically, for over 100 years hadn't? | |||
