    LONDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 27: Just Treatment, a protest group, unfurl a banner in support of striking young doctors, on Westmimnster Bridge, on day one of the British Medical Association (BMA) strike action on June 27, 2024 in London, United Kingdom. Junior doctors, who are members of the BMA, are striking in the final week before Britain goes to the polls. Despite receiving an 8.8% pay rise last summer and an additional 3% offer, the BMA rejected the 3% offer as it doesn't compensate for the over 25% loss in real-term pay over the past 15 years. The BMA is demanding full pay restoration to reverse these real-term cuts since 2008-09, along with a new pay mechanism to prevent future pay decreases due to inflation and the cost of living.
