As the strikes continue, the former head of the independent pay review body has called on Sunak to reconsider the offer currently on the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Labour leader Keir Starmer has previously called the strikes a &#8221;badge of shame&#8221; and accused the PM of putting political considerations above patient safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video

to hold firm on the issue, as accepting the demands of one sector could set a precedent for other industries, including teachers, rail workers, and driving examiners, who are also<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/business-62134314\"> considering industrial action<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maria Caulfield, a health minister who also works as a nurse,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hdBz34pBPzM\"> said<\/a> that the RCN&#8217;s request for a 19% pay rise was unaffordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She argued that for every 1% extra offered, it would cost the public \u00a3700m, making the total government cost for meeting the demand in the region of \u00a313billion \u2013 which would need to be funded by borrowing, tax rises, or cuts to budgets in other areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, despite the RCS&#8217;s offer on Saturday to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itv.com\/news\/2022-12-11\/government-to-ignore-nurses-offer-to-press-pause-on-strikes-for-pay-talks\"> pause<\/a> NHS strikes if the government join pay talks, ministers have<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/society\/2022\/dec\/03\/ministers-accused-of-spoiling-for-a-fight-with-nurses-over-pay\"> refused<\/a> to discuss the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They believe it is a matter for the independent pay review body, which made the current pay rise recommendation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nurses\u2019 union leader, Pat Cullen,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/politics\/2022\/dec\/09\/nurses-union-leader-accuses-steve-barclay-bullyboy-tactics\"> accused<\/a> health secretary Steve Barclay of not only refusing to negotiate but using \u201cbullyboy tactics\u2019\u2019 and not taking the issue seriously; due to nursing being a 90% female profession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leaders of the RCN previously suggested that if a deal similar to the one offered in Scotland, which ranges from 5% to 11% depending on staff grades, was presented, it could potentially lead to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/society\/2022\/dec\/03\/ministers-accused-of-spoiling-for-a-fight-with-nurses-over-pay\"> progress<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video

the issue has divided the Conservative party, with the former party chairman, Jake Berry, calling on the government to compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said that while the RCN\u2019s demand for a 19% pay rise was not realistic, the government and the union needed to find a way to reach an agreement quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter
