NHS Workers March On Downing Street Demanding A Pay Rise

National Health Service (NHS) staff, protesting their exclusion from a recently-announced public sector pay rise, demonstrate outside St Thomas' Hospital in London, England, on July 29, 2020. Around 900,000 public sector workers across the UK are set to receive above-inflation pay rises this year as a gesture of thanks from the Treasury for their efforts during the coronavirus pandemic. Within the NHS, doctors and dentists will benefit from the rises, but nurses and other frontline staff have been excluded owing to a three-year pay deal they negotiated in 2018. Nursing activists say that so-called Agenda for Change agreement doesn't go far enough, however, in correcting a decade of falling real-terms pay. (Photo by David Cliff/NurPhoto)
