There are already a lot of posts on pre-reg places and pay on the forum, as well as general working conditions.

Looks like UK still regarded as a honeypot. Next year likely to be greatest shortage ever as many elderly pharmacists like me will quit. Would not be surprised if this then precipitates remote supervision etc as an 'emergency measure'. Unless a few people die, will become the norm and pharmacists will be two a penny from then on with wages to match. Last happened in the thirties. Desperate unemployed pharmacists will then start opening 100 hour pharmacies as only way out of poverty.

Probably won't come to that - don't forget that pharmacists are graduates as well and have lots of transferable skills if the worst comes to the worst.
