I actually know a lot of junior doctors, as the University I went to has a lot of med students, so the people I knew there have been doctors for 5 to 7 years at this point. None of them are even close to being "millionaires"... They have pretty normal middle class existences and incomes, hectic work lives, and little social time.

the nhs cant afford to pay these rich people double time or more for working weekends....further more all junior doctors should have to work some weekends as a compulsory part of their contracts to spread the workload throughout the doctors to ensure the minority are not overworked...under labour junior doctors work up to 91 hours, that is insane. under the tories that is reduced to maximum 72 hours. so its labour who overwork them in their hairbrained system. yet its labour who preach about the poor tired doctors. labour are full of BS
