  1. I think rail workers deserve a decent pay rise to not get left behind due to inflation, but paramedics and nurses are another thing all together…

    “*You’ll need to do a paramedic science degree (3 years). Paramedic salaries start at Band 5, which ranges from £25,655 to £31,534.*”

    “*Your working environment may be physically and emotionally demanding. You could work evenings / weekends / bank holidays. You will need to pass enhanced background checks*”

    “*In this role you’ll:*

    * *respond to emergency calls*
    * *assess situations when you arrive and check details with others at the scene, like the police*
    * *work calmly and quickly to stabilise patients*
    * *use a defibrillator to revive patients*
    * *give patients medicines and injections*
    * *help to deliver babies*”

    Who in their right mind thinks paramedics are lazy and undeserving.
