London, UK. 13th April 2018. A group of NHS staff from hospitals across London pose for a photograph after briefly staging a token occupation of the foyer of the Department of Health in Victoria St to show their opposition to the proposed pay deal for all NHS staff except doctors, dentists and very senior managers. Leaked information about the deal has caused widespread outrage, showing that for most staff it means a rise under predicted inflation over the three year period and will cut holiday entitlements. The deal also includes an appraisal process, which staff not at the top of their pay band must complete in order to progress to their next pay point. Both shadow chancellor John McDonnell and shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth have spoken out against the proposals and those protesting want all those involvede in the NHS to ditch the deal and take action for a satisfactory offer.
