Junior Doctor grilled by BBC Radio Drivetime Interviewer Chris Mann:

Today (19th November 2015) Junior Doctors overwhelmingly voted in support of industrial action for the first time since the inception of the NHS, with 98% supporting a full strike for three days in December.
Hospitals will be covered by consultants, nurses and other NHS staff during those three days

No junior doctor wants to go on strike, however they have been forced to by a health secretary who has shown again and again that he desires to privatize the NHS by hook or by crook.

This contract: 1) Removes the national safeguards which prevent patients from being treated by exhausted doctors 2) Reduces the net pay significantly for the vast majority of doctors 3) Penalizes emergency services 4) Penalizes women and those with familes 5) Penalizes those doctors contributing to research for cures of diseases 6) Will bring about a vast exodus of doctors from the UK

If this contract goes through, it will be: 1) Unsafe for doctors 2) Unsafe for patients 3) Will result in an exodus of junior doctors from the United Kingdom
