UK Government Offers Junior Doctors 22% Pay Rise to End Strikes

The proposed deal aims to resolve long-standing disputes and prevent further disruptions in the NHS.

  • The British Medical Association (BMA) will present the offer to junior doctors for a vote.
  • The pay rise includes a backdated 4% increase for 2023-24 and an additional 6% for 2024-25.
  • Junior doctors had initially demanded a 35% increase to account for years of below-inflation pay rises.
  • The strikes have led to the cancellation of over 1.4 million NHS appointments and procedures.
  • GPs are also considering industrial action, deeming a 6% pay rise insufficient.
