I don't want to be a GP
And to be honest, the media is always attacking GP's and as such, their wage figures can be exaggerated somewhat
LOL.
I see you are young, this may excuse your poor grasp of reality I suppose.

So I dont understand why they are still angry at this.
Yeah it will
All GP's will have gone through 5 or 6 years of medschool, racking up a huge debt. Then two foundation years, with most of the time spent having their fingers up people's bums. Then in their first year as a salaried GP, they tend to earn around £50k
Yes but I think it is universally accepted, including among GPs, that GPs are very well rewarded nowadays. The contract Labour gave them was ridiculously over generous.
Nobody is saying GPs don't deserve to be well paid, but there are limits.
Jesus.
Most of them get paid to much for doing nothing anyway, oh I'll sit behind a desk on a computer and fanny about with peoples money. Wow, hard work, not.
But what annoys me is how the media and then the general non public sector workers seem to put across this image of every public sector worker being some over payed lazy worker.
Do you think it may be because every time we come in contact with a large chunk of public sector workers they give the image of over paid, lazy, officious jobsworths who go out of their way to make things as difficult as possible to do what you need to do? The nightmare that is the DWP or the local planning office or trying to get anything from your local council. The pain that is dealing with the SLC, DVLA or the like?

Certainly in my experience - yes and when the answer is no I can almost always ask to speak to a manager and get my lack of satisfaction dealt with. For a lot of people this isn't the case when dealing with the public sector.

Not a week goes buy without a thread on here complaining about 'call centre muppets', most of which work for private sector companies. And why wouldnt it, given we hardly put the creme of our workforce on the end of a phone, do we?

Well yes, because when they aren't I can take my business elsewhere.
