THOUSANDS of doctors thronged the streets of London on Saturday to oppose new contracts that will force them to work more for less.
Up to 20,000 marched from Waterloo to Parliament Square to reject plans that would see “normal” working hours changed from 7am to 7pm Monday to Friday to 7am to 10pm Monday to Saturday.

Paediatric registrar Alex Armitage said the changes were “an extension of the Conservative plan to set the NHS up to fail.”
