  1. Don’t forget, it was just £80million to give the nurses a halfway decent pay rise post covid.

    But no, that was too much. Instead the Tory way was to say ‘here’s 1% now[ get back to work’.]( https://metro.co.uk/2021/03/05/government-says-1-pay-rise-for-nhs-staff-is-most-we-can-afford-14191607/)

    Edit: According to [this article](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-39720085), each 1% pay rise for NHS staff (excluding foctors) costs ~£350million, so £3.5billion to cover the ~10% [real terms pay cut ](https://www.tuc.org.uk/news/nurses-will-earn-ps2500-less-real-terms-2010)that nurses have had since 2010

  2. Everytime I see a picture of these two together I can’t help but wonder how we ended up with two people with such weird mouths having this much power. Seriously. They have super weird mouths.
