They do ok and have great pensions, so I hear.

Average GP now earns GBP113,000, after series of pay boosts

As SueEllen wrote, this doesn't mention whether it's salaried GPs, locum, partners.

Average is a terrible measurement, as the richest inflate the figure. The median is far better. Most GPs don't earn anywhere near what you seem to think.

I'm more interested in poorly performing company execs paying themselves more and more money, whilst their lowest paid staff earn a pittance. It's been a trend since 2008 and doesn't seem to be stopping.

Doesn't make it clear whether it is GP partners or a salaried GP.

The latter tend to work part-time and don't tend to do the other things GP partners do to increase their earnings. The bonus of being salaried is if you want to emigrate you just hand in your notice.

Some just do locum work, either in general practice or in out of hours services.

Feck, how dare these docs get paid almost as much as IT contractors. They don't add nearly as much value as some code monkey sitting on his/her fat ass all day, pressing a few keys and trolling on CUK

If your GP is on that much then s/he is a practice partner and self-employed.

And probably a rural dispensing practice as well. That's where the real money is (or used to be).

[SueEllen]

Probably my local GP who locked down the surgery for fear of Covid-19 who earns about £200K p.a. Whilst front line nurses earning £30K pa facing Covid-19 get feck all. Sounds about right.

The salaried GPs s/he employs are on about £60K though they work part-time.

Chancellor announces inflation-busting pay rise for almost a million public sector workers | Daily Mail Online

Almost 900,000 public sector workers are in line for an inflation-busting 'coronavirus payrise' - including thousands of teachers

the teachers dont deserve this

Hi Mr D

My sister-in-law is a teacher. Got a face like a slapped ass and I don't want her getting any more manny

Can't speak for the rest of the teaching profession though.

Maybe you could give some money to nurses yourself if you are so moved by their plight?

Because that's not a great way of addressing inadequate pay.

[Andy2]

I'm a permie, I already give over almost everything I earn to the plight of others through PAYE thanks.

The rest goes to the ex-wife.

What's left pays for a sleeping bag and a doorway.

Well they could easily raise the 30 hours funding, that is totally under their control.

They could also pay more for care and as 56% of care home residents are funded by the Government, Council or NHS they could ask the supplies to up the wages as part of the supply agreement.

Yeah right....
