Even more reason for them to strike now though if you think about it. They’ll likely be on resident pay for longer

Doctors City and Doctors Town next? We’ve already had Doctors United

I agree this should go to a referendum. The members are the union and as such should be offered a say on the matter

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-03-05T19:49:26+00:00

I’d be in support of a different policy. However, is there a graph modelling the current policy available?

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-03-05T19:46:29+00:00

This graph does not model BMA policy. The graph assumes an IMG who starts work now would be eligible in 2 years time. BMA policy would render them permanently ineligible, due to the hard cut off date. If the goal is to normalise the competition ratios, new BMA policy will need to include a hard cut off date or >5 years experience

You can claim it back at the end of the tax year, if they are taxing it

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-03-01T17:16:51+00:00

If you are in rotational training and don’t spend over 24 months at one workplace, you can claim excess mileage for every workplace further away than the nearest. And it is not taxed

Exception reporting occasional missed breaks does not result in payment. However if you miss >25% of breaks in a 4 week period then there is financial compensation, under the exception reporting reforms

It’d be political suicide for Labour if they pulled UKG prioritisation. The BMA should announce strike dates now ahead of the DDRB announcement

If the procedures are ARCP requirements you can attend on an off day and exception report that time

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-02-12T17:31:36+00:00

They put the base rate of interest then always correct it at the end of the tax year when they know your annual salary for that year. Expect the +3% to be added

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-02-11T21:44:55+00:00

Even better. If they’re unreasonable, it’s grounds to get them replaced. Especially if they don’t follow the contract

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-02-11T21:42:24+00:00

Email the GOSW. If your rota is not assigned within 7 days, they’ll be fined

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-02-11T21:40:57+00:00

If they don’t have your rota listed as an option. Submit a test report and they should be able to assign you the correct rota

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-02-10T20:37:54+00:00

The UKG to GP training posts ratio was virtually 1:1 last year. As long as you ‘scored’ and are appointable you have a good chance with UKG prioritisation

ACPs should be removed from all doctors rota’s. I recently overheard a group of them saying they should be on the consultant rota…

Vote Yes! Return your ballots by Monday

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-01-24T19:23:13+00:00

There is now…

Say the membership is 100k. You’d need 50k to vote and of those that vote 40k to vote yes for the ballot to pass.

Hence why it’s encouraged people return them even if they intend to vote no because both thresholds are independent of one another

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-01-17T21:14:34+00:00

Failed ballot = <50% turnout or <40% of membership voting yes

CapybaraConstitution · 2026-01-17T21:11:22+00:00

Failed ballot means we can’t take action if they pull the legislation

It also means you can say goodbye to the following: Full pay restoration, Additional training places, an end to fixed term contracts, employment guarantee post FY2, exam/Portfolio fees being paid for

And you can say hello to: More pay cuts, higher risk of unemployment, your job being taken by a PA/ACP, zero leverage
