Midwives turn down three-year pay offer - The Telegraph 29th May 2008

Gordon Brown faced more anger over public sector pay yesterday when midwives turned down the Government's offer of a three-year deal. The Royal College of Midwives said that a consultation of its members in England and Wales showed a 99.7 per cent rejection of the plan, worth just under eight per cent. Midwives supported a one-year increase of 2.75 per cent, which was recommended by a pay review body before the Government intervened to press for a longer deal.
