UK FISCAL: Nurses reject UK pay offer: BBC

UK FISCAL
  • From BBC: "Nurses in England have voted to reject the government's offer of a 5.5% pay rise, the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) has said."
  • This follows rhetoric from the new government that they have delivered pay rises to end strikes across the public sector... It looks as though there may be more nurse strikes coming unless this is dealt with swiftly. And that could embolden other public sector workers - particularly after the junior doctors' pay deal.
