Marisawright 6,598 Posted April 8, 2016 I have a lot of sympathy for the junior doctors, but I must say it's great to hear the newsreaders referring to the BMA as a union. In Australia, the AMA isn't ever called a union - it's called a "professional organisation" so when they make unreasonable demands for higher fees, it gets waved through because they are such an august body. Plus they are able to make life ridiculously difficult for British doctors and nurses.
