All of this pandering to the voters by the big parties in the run-up to the election. Sickening marketing and propaganda.
Keep digging them in the ribs Mr. Farage. You won't get into power, but SOMEBODY might be pressured to actually carry out the wishes of the majority of ordinary people in this country then.
I have in no way said the medical profession get too much money - just Joe being economical with the truth.
The structure of the pay rise is wrong - the 1% across the board.
The guy on over a £100,000 would get it too
Thought you Labour guys were against wealth!
Why did you spend time googling their wages, Les? Is this supposed to impress people? How well paid they are? Tell me what the average wage isOriginally Posted by les_taxi
Name 20 benefits, Les. The only mistake Labour made, unless you know better. If you do, please tell. They didn't make the Poles wait 7yrs until they could come to the UK - which they did with the Romanians and Bulgarians.
Many NHS staff have been assaulted,
And what about bosses that exploit workers? If they didn't, then there would be no need for unionsUnions are the problem, get rid!
You would have to be from a middle class family to afford the £50k debt they end up in
My misses has done 5yrs at Med School in the Phils, the course and uni has to be recognised by the GMC so you can be registered. That's after you've passed PLAB exams - something British doctors don't do!Is that why we have so many foreign doctors Joe, 'cos their training is less thorough ?
As I've already asked, why did you post the wage scales for them ???I have in no way said the medical profession get too much money - just Joe being economical with the truth.

Which guy gets £100k? Show me some figures as you did with midwives, Les
Unlike you Joe, I don't google all day - was on 5-Live when I heard itWhy did you spend time googling their wages, Les? Is this supposed to impress people? How well paid they are? Tell me what the average wage is
You're having a laugh!the only mistake Labour made
I will look it up at some point, but it is a fact that under Labour there were about 120 different benefits available.
True, but this is not the argument - I'm not criticizing the job they do or what they get paid - you misread too much.Many NHS staff have been assaulted
Quick google and I found this - if you want I will try to find higher earners

All I'm saying is, a lot of the top-paid professionals were able to take on the debt, as they came from wealthy middle class backgrounds
Btw. I only posted the midwife wage as Andy posted this:
Since the average midwife gets over £30,000, I did not feel they were on the breadline.Now there are midwives striking for decent pay. The first time in history
You Labour guys love strike action - so we give them a rise, then firemen, then police etc etc - we ain't got the money as Labour gleefully pointed out when they were kicked out of office
Unlike you Joe I don't google all day-was on 5 live where I heard itThe only reason I'm on here now is because today is one of my paid holidays
Quick google and I found this - if you want, I will try to find higher earners

You're right Les, not many working class kids get to be doctors, doesn't sound fair does itAll I'm saying is, a lot of the top-paid professionals were able to take on the debt, as they came from wealthy middle class backgrounds
It's life get on with it!You're right Les, not many working class kids get to be doctors, doesn't sound fair does it
No, pity you don't know your stuff Joe, as it was on 5 Live this morning. Play it back! Nicky (what's his name?) put it to the strikers: How did they feel about people in the Health Service earning over £100,000 getting the 1%? They, of course, couldn't answer. Great fun listening to that!
Pity you didn't check Les, there are Pay Scales for Managers, but then you'll tell me the NHS has to pay the going business rate for a job with such responsibility when a trust employs 1,000s
Double-check your facts in future, Joe - I'm getting bored of correcting you
You don't feel Les, how much is rent down South, Les?Btw, I only posted the midwife wage as Andy posted this:
Now there are midwives striking for decent pay. The first time in history.
Since the average midwife gets over £30,000, I did not feel they were on the breadline.
You Labour guys love strike action - so we give them a rise, then firemen, then police, etc etc - we ain't got the money as Labour gleefully pointed out when they were kicked out of office
No money, yet Osborne cuts 10% off the tax rate for the rich! How does that work out, Les?
Seeing as you're busy working, I'll google average pay for the UK for you Les..
Oh, it's £26,500 Les.
http://www.itv.com/news/2014-10-10/m...-row-over-pay/There were four midwives on staff the night we were there and every single one of them told me they love their job. They routinely work their 12-hour shift without a break and stay late - sometimes up to 15/16 hours - in order to see a labour through.
As for my misses, I moaned at her last week when she came home at 7:30 pm. Told her she was only supposed to work 40 hrs a week. Most nights she doesn't get home till after 7pm. It's 6:20pm now, shes still not home and she should finish at 5pm. Takes her 20mins to get home... unpaid overtime Les, unlike you she cant just sayI've had enough for today and go home.
I'll correct you again les, what's this link then les ?? send me a link where it says a doctor, nurse or midwife gets 100k a year ?It's life get on with it!
No, pity you don't know your stuff Joe, as it was on 5 Live this morning. Play it back! Nicky (whats his name?) put it to the strikers: How did they feel about people in the Health Service earning over £100,000 getting the 1%? They, of course, couldn't answer. Great fun listening to that!

They entered the profession knowing that's the score. The wage for a midwife is based on a *37.5 hour week. What's *that? I've never done that in my life
They do a great job and clearly get great job satisfaction.
You have Googled the average pay for what? everyone in UK?
Did she choose her job or was she forced into it against her will Joe? If she was forced into it she could maybe claim.unlike you she can't just say I've had enough for today and go home
I chose my job too and had to invest a lot of money to do so.
I have worked 90-hour weeks mate, so don't need a lecture on when I can finish.
No, I will correct you. I said 'Health Worker' - which includes all as pointed out on 5 Live - just listen to the podcast! In fact, do you want £50 on it?I'll correct you again, Les. What's this link then, Les? Send me a link where it says a doctor, nurse or midwife gets 100k a year
Salaries for the UK's 42,000 GPs vary from an average of £103,000 a year for partners in practices to anything between £53,781 and £81,158 for GPs employed by Primary Care Trusts.
That's from 2012 - satisfied now?
So the way the Tories have dealt with it is to go to payday lenders and increase the debt by using debt to payoff debt!
Even the country's top finance experts say the government should have invested more money in jobs, rather than putting thousands on the dole, and calling it austerity.
Keith - Administrator
It was a no win election - a poisoned chalice - you ain't going to like the person who says you can't spend what we haven't got
So the fact is that the jobless count is lower than when Labour was in power is irrelevant then?Even the country's top finance experts say the government should have invested more money in jobs, rather than putting thousands on the dole, and call it austerity
Right, work to do - as I have just wasted an hour of my life on here.

I have worked 90-hour weeks mate so don't need a lecture on when I can finish.So when you take a job and your contract says you work a 40-hr week, that's what you work, not 5-10 hrs a week for nothing. But that's what many NHS workers do - work for
90-hrs a week?
Partners, they own the GP surgery; its run as a business just like your taxi business. They employ staff and pay their wages, pay utilities etc..
Oh, an NHS GP gets £53k to £85k,
How many years experience do you need to be on £85k?
Wrong again Joe - you suckered me into coming back to reply.
A survey by The Daily Telegraph has found that more than 7,800 NHS staff were paid over £100,000 last year, with a third of them earning more than David Cameron’s £142,500 salary.
You're glad they would have got the 1% rise?!
Again, you are trying to twist things - which is what you do.
I have total respect for NHS workers, don't believe in strikes - unlike Labour supporters in general.
People choose their jobs - if they don't want the hours, don't want the responsibility, go and do another job.
You will be telling me next, Teachers have a hard time of it
What will be awful for the country - but will be great fun - is watching you trying to defend Labour if they get back in. Oh, I'm sure we will all be poorer, but I will have the satisfaction of taking the piss out of you big time
Waste of time talking about the Tories anyway, they won't be winning next May. The underlying trend the bookies use still gives Labour a few points lead.

I'm shutting up for now.

They were right about the Scottish Referendum and they will be right about a Labour government.
I can't think of anything worse than this! Actually, I can. UKIP on their own!Perfect combination for me - Tory/UKIP - bang on!
This is an interesting read and tells it how it is. I'm still hopeful that the vast majority of UKIP's supporters will see sense before the next election.

As a betting man, how much do you want on that?Waste of time talking about the Tories anyway, they won't be winning next May. The underlying trend the bookies use still gives Labour a few points lead.
Let's hope many of them watch this:

Found your article, Les
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/he...-salaries.html
Almost 8,000 NHS hospital managers and consultants were paid six-figure salaries last year while nurses were “run ragged” because of dangerously low staffing levels.The highest-paid executive earned £340,000 — almost 16 times more than ward nurses, who earn as little as £21,388-a-year. Eleven high earners have been paid more than £250,000 each.Darren Cattell, the trust’s interim finance director, was paid £340,000 last year — almost £1,475-a-day — as the trust headed towards financial meltdown.Trusts said that the majority of high earners were senior clinical staff. The average consultant is paid £84,000, but can receive an additional £76,000 a year in “clinical excellence awards”, which critics claim are given as a matter of course.A Department of Health spokesman said: “Many of these staff are senior consultants and their pay reflects responsibilities and clinical skills".
