correspondent, nick triggle. remind us why the consultants and senior doctors are striking today. the dispute, like many others we see in the public sector, is about pay. the british medical association says that consultants have suffered pay erosion with below inflation pay rises for the past 15 years. that has prompted, as you say, the first strike by consultants since 2012. nhs bosses warned this will have the biggest impact of any of the strikes we have seen so far ofjunior doctors, nurses and ambulance staff. that is because consultants cannot be replaced. if you are relying on a consultant anaesthetist for a surgery to be carried out, that could mean a whole team of nurses and other theatre staff cannot work and other theatre staff cannot work and that list stops completely. so how much are consultants paid, then?
