Tens of thousands of England’s trainee doctors have gone on strike this week over pay. For many, hourly pay falls below that of some baristas and fast-food workers.

Junior doctors working in the country’s National Health Service walked out Tuesday — the first of four days of strikes — demanding a 35% increase in annual salaries. The British Medical Association, the trade union and professional body for UK doctors, says junior doctors in England have suffered a 26% cut to their pay since 2008 once inflation is taken into account.

Barclay called the union’s call for a 35% pay rise for junior doctors “unreasonable,” adding that he would resume talks if the BMA moved “significantly” away from its current demand. And finance minister Jeremy Hunt told the BBC Thursday that offering pay rises above the rate of inflation would be a “terrible mistake.
