The British Medical Association says their salaries have fallen by a quarter in the last 15 years and is calling for a 35% rise. According to the union, newly qualified doctors earn around £15 an hour, while the UK minimum wage is just over £10 an hour.
The movement, which is expected to last until July 2, comes in the middle of the campaign for the legislative elections, which are to be held on July 4.
