    I feel really sorry for you guys. A basic salary of £32k is a joke, even after years of work you can only earn £58k that's absurd. I pay my children's nanny more than that and she has no qualifications. She's on about £50k a year. And I know that most nannies (not mine though) receive their salary in 100% cash (so no tax) and claim benefits - some are live in so don't pay rent, so they are on more like £70k a year.

      Have you inflated the figures? Even a university teacher starts at much a lower salary than your nanny. I can only assume that you are an Arab sheik. Even rich UK people would not pay £50000 for a nanny, not even the royals.
      If your nanny ever leaves, please ket me know.

      Like most profession’s, junior’s start on a much reduced salary compared to the amount they will earn once they become experienced. How much do you think a junior first officer earns at a typical UK airline flying 200 people around the sky’s? It’s not unusual for a Joni or pilot to start out on around £25,000 per year, in most cases with £100,000 of training debt still to pay off. However, once established they can expect to earn upwards of £100,000 per year later on in their career. Just the same as junior doctors who know their salary will greatly improve with time and experience.

As a citizen of many years I am appalled that we pay train drivers the same as Senior Consultants, let alone doctors with years of experience, better off a vet. Taxes however we all have to pay, and the more you earn the more you pay, until it is hardly worth working. You forgot to stress to colleagues from abroad the high cost of living in the UK, this makes your money disappear quickly, before they get too excited.

      Very long waiting times, staff who qualified in third world countries and are now working for the NHS (something that never happens in Europe) how many misdiagnosed and died, how many sent home and died, 7.7 million people on the NHS waiting list, not enough beds, not enough parking spaces around hospital, hospitals are old and outdated, GP doesn't care, people pulling their own teeth out because they can't get a dentist appointment and so on.

      If a profession doesn't have learning on the job, why does years of experience correlate with the pay?
      Just like an MBA grad learns on the job for years before leading a big company, a junior doctor learns on the job for years before becoming a consultant leading their department. Either way, both do the work and both get paid more as they gain more experience. An MBA, thus is also getting paid to learn. So what's wrong when a junior doctor does the same? By your logic, nobody should complain about their pay because "they're all learning".
      And most senior doctor salaries hover around £90k.

      Junior doctors work the same hours as consultants. And the pay is about 40% of consultant pay. So effectively our income is already less because "we're learning on the job". Technically we're paying for our education by earning less.
      Learning on the job doesn't mean we are not doing our job. It's just that learning is deeply integrated into the work.
      Nobody's doing any charity here. Yet doctors in 2008 earned 28% more than what doctors at same rank earn today, accounting for inflation.

    For anyone thinking about coming to the UK on a 34K per year salary - as evidenced by this video, you can probably see clearly that after tax deductions, it really doesn't leave you with too much left over.

    The NHS Pension is Unfunded and Uncontractual.
    My Experience is that during my 10 years in the NHS they:
    1) Increased the NHS pension retirement age from 60 to 68. Stealing 8 years of old age.
    2) Lowered what they pay out, due to RPI link removal and linking to whatever they deem to uplift your salary by each year (CARE Scheme). Even if inflation is 10%, they might uplift by only 5%, therefore decreasing your pension and salary. Not good.
    3) Increased the contribution percentage dramatically.
    Plus given there is no investment 'Pot', only an uncontractual and unfunded scheme, then its simply additional taxation, with a thin promise to pay based on rules they can and have changed as they wish.
    Good luck planning your retirement if you work in the NHS.
    As a comparison, a single stock I own pays me more right now per month (pro rata) than 10 years of NHS pension contributions will pay me when I retire.
    Do your own research, please.

      @@karthiksreddy999 Excellent question. NHS pension is defined benefit. Not defined contribution (which is then invested into a pension fund). So NHS pension is guaranteed to give you a defined benefit when you leave the job. Which is... for every pensionable year you worked in the NHS, they'll give you 1/54 of your final salary for the rest of your life. So if you retire after 10 years from NHS and your last salary was 60K GBP, you'll get (10/54)*60K GBP pension every year.
