Jeremy Hunt too early in the morning junior doctor contracts
Jeremy Hunt says it is too early in the morning to understand the arithmetic with his new contract proposal.
Nevertheless, 7am-7pm Monday to Friday is currently considered normal working hours for junior doctors.
Under his new proposal, normal working hours will be extended to 7am-10pm Monday to Saturday.
Unlike Jeremy in this clip, Junior Doctors have to be alert and awake when they start their shifts. Increasing their "normal working hours" won't help.
