Wonder whether there will be further strike action or if a few more concessions from hmg will get it over the line.

Well given that 52/48 was sufficient mandate for a very hard Brexit the government won't complain at all if they go for an all out strike on the back of that result

They have said they are going to negotiate without strike action for the moment. Won't need much to get that over the line.
They all have lots of the money they need to get working hard and give nurses a rest

Rises of up to 20%. Amazing what restoring pay whittled down unfairly by austerity measures can do to solve a dispute.Consultants end pay dispute with government in England

Either
Either way presumably if they've settled they are reasonably happy.

We are, to be honest I voted to accept the initial offer. It's just the reporting by the media of a 20% rise is going to stir up resentment when actually it's not quite representative of what's happened.

When there was a new GP contract in 2003 it was reported that the pay rise was 30%.
What they didn't clarify was the change in payment of employers pension which previously was paid by the government but they made it the responsibility of the GPs so 20% of the rise was a simple transfer of cash and didn't benefit GPs at all.
Following this after 10 years of pay reduction I'd had enough and left

Nothing to stop them (or anyone else) going on strike as soon as Labour take over to see if the next government will be more generous.
It's the nurses that need the pay rise what they go through !
As for Doctors , what sort of Doctors ? Should be on 10k a month or close to it ...

Errrr all of em surely.
No not at all, but isn't it mostly junior doctors that are striking ?
