I want to be a GP, but the government is doing everything it can to stop me. Mr Hunt’s brilliant answer to the crisis in GP recruitment is to slash trainee pay by 30%, penalise doctors taking maternity leave or extra degrees, and extend normal working hours.1 Morale among my peers about to apply for specialty training is catastrophically low. As a result, the majority of my friends are looking to move from the NHS and take a ‘Foundation Year 3: FY 3’ because they perceive that their immediate future here is bleak. At a time in our careers when we should be optimistic and enthusiastic, it’s tragic that the state of the English NHS is leaving us so disillusioned. Scotland has dismissed the new junior contract, making a move north ever more tempting. We need a strong positive message from senior doctors that there is a bright future in English general practice, and a commitment from government that our incomes will be protected and our efforts valued.
