Dr Sumi Manirajan

I support 5 years being the definition of ‘significant experience’. Here is our stance. You can read the rest of our manifesto here: instagram.com/p/DVwbs6XjB39/…

I'm running for London Council. 
I negotiated the 22% pay uplift, broke the locum cap locally as an f1/2 & won back incorrectly deducted strike pay. I'm standing with an experienced & driven team to scrap the locum cap and revise London weighting.

That’s just not true.

Not true. This graph by @goldstone_tony reveals the truth regarding pay.

I graduated as a doctor 4 years ago with ~£100k of debt, and despite working up to 72 hours a week, my debt has only increased. Doctors are being paid £17/hour and have to make loan repayments and pay thousands for exams and fees. We are only asking for £23/hour. @wesstreeting

I pay for my training. I have over £115k of debt and will pay back over £250k over the course of my career. This doesn’t include the thousands I have to pay for exams and courses during the course of my career. Doctors are worth more than £15 an hour. #DoctorsStrike
