NHS cuts protest
NHS workers staged a demonstration in protest against cuts in pay outside Churchill Square in Brighton.
The GMB has criticised Brighton and Sussex University Hospital NHS Trust’s decision to reduce the amount of money it pays to its team of nursing bank staff.
The move, which could save up to £1.5 million a year, will affect hundreds of workers.
The GMB said cutting the salaries of workers towards the bottom end of the pay scale will increase the “massive inequality” between the highest and lowest paid workers at the trust.
