Telegraph, 07 Mar 2021
Prime Minister Boris Johnson says the 1% pay rise offer to NHS staff is all the government can manage.
It comes as the vaccine programme continues to accelerate, with people aged between 56 and 59 being invited to book Covid-19 jabs this week.
Hundreds of thousands of letters for the age group began landing on doorsteps on Saturday, and the latest round of invites comes after eight in 10 people aged 65-69 took up the offer of a jab, NHS England said.
