The new contract DOES NOT implement 7 days working. That is a matter for EACH hospital when and where it can deliver it. Let's assume for the sake of your
ridiculous and spurious argument that shorter hours won't happen. Why would that matter according to them as the CURRENT/OLD hours are longer anyway.

According to the banners, the junior doctors already work weekends. That is in part what they are complaining about.
