NHS consultants have rebuffed a pay offer from the government, signaling a continuation of the prolonged strike action that has gripped the healthcare sector. The senior doctors had temporarily halted their strike in November 2023 following the government’s proposal of a 4.95% pay increase, in addition to the annual 6% increment.

Members of the British Medical Association (BMA), the principal trade union representing doctors in the UK, have been actively voting on the offer throughout this month. The rejection underscores the discontent among NHS consultants regarding the terms of the proposed pay rise.
