NHS staff deserve more
Rallies across Britain call for historic pay cuts to be reversed
THOUSANDS of health service staff and their supporters will take to the streets nationwide on Saturday calling for NHS workers to get a 15 per cent pay rise.
From Derby to Dorset, Bristol to Brighton and Newcastle to Norwich, nurses and other health workers will march in support of a pay increase which has been repeatedly denied them by the government.
The government excluded NHS staff from a public service pay increase last month, using the excuse that their existing pay agreement does not expire until April next year.
