  1. Isn’t that what our taxes are supposed to pay for?

    * Medical expertise
    * Labour
    * Medicines
    * equipment
    * hospital maintenance?

    Am I missing something else? So what happens when we lose medical expertise because doctors and other medical staff don’t want to work for peanuts?

  2. its funny how bootlicker people say politicians should be ReMuNeRaTeD based on private sector ceo’s, yet go completly silent when discussing medical professionals.

  3. Lets fact check what she said? Maria Caulfield, who the fick is she, & what the fick does she care about nurse’s pay, or for that matter, anyone else’s pay, or standard of living?

    One look at her & I see another Piss taker.

    Lets fact check this f@cking government, & get them BINNED!

    IMOP she’s just another egotistic worm trying to get what she can out of the broken system, she is happy to condone, before it collapses around her sad. sad self & the rest of her two faced colleagues.

    Born a Tory, born a liar…

  4. I truly wish that it was a £1,000, because her & the like of her have added many £1,000s to our cost of living.

    Please go now & stop milking us…

  5. Look at this tory ghouls face, you can just tell she’s a fucking LIAR.

    The tories have been trotting this £1,000 line out for the last week. So they have had ample opportunity to fact check their figures. To counter any arguments from us ‘none believers’. To slap is down. To tell us publically how much we are WRONG WRONG WRONG, because they are RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT, and here’s the figures and backing to prove it.

    But no, all they want is for the public to ‘believe’, believe in them. Believe in all their lies and deceit, and be a good little servile tory voter in the process.

    They are fucking LIARS – this abomination of a ‘politician’ absolutely included.

  6. > During an interview on BBC Breakfast Ms Caulfield said, in response to a question about nurses’ pay: “If we matched, say to 11%, which is just above inflation right now, that would add about £1,000 to every household in the country.”

    Except, as FullFact point out, that £1000 refers to a payrise for ALL public srctor workers.

  7. Would she consider a 50% deduction of her salary to help easing the inflation as the Tory keeps saying that is the cause?

  8. Mad to think it would cost less then the awful test and trace to give every public sector worker a 11%pay rise.

  9. It’s almost as if the government are a cabal of habitual and compulsive liars with no regard for this country or the people living in it.

  10. Health ministers resort to lying because they’re ideologically unable to engage with workers’ complaints.
