This week’s critical incidents in SE trusts underline a long‑warning signal: the medical workforce is stretched past safe limits. ✅ Expand specialty trng places ✅ Retain & value Drs ✅ Fund a credible long‑term workforce plan Patients & staff deserve better. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... @bma.org.uk

We have had another query from a member who hasn’t been paid for some work last year. ⌛Please note that in order for us to make a legal claim to an employment tribunal for unlawful deduction from wages, there are strict time limits- 3 months minus 1 day from the date of the underpayment.
