        @BBCNews That comparison would be easier if junior doctors were on this table.

        @BBCNews But they're not just striking over changes in pay, it's the new contract. So much missing from this article it's beyond unhelpful

        @BBCNews You should be ashamed of yourselves. Doctors dedicate their lives to save our lives and you join in the attack on them. Disgusting.

        @campotheclown @BBCNews Agreed, only in the Ivory towers of Londinium (and even then unlikely) do solicitors start on £37k!

        @BBCNews Do nurses, paramedics, everyone in public sector get extra pay for working unsocial hours? If so this is a fair protest. If not...

        @BBCNews But the jobs in this list are private sector, so not strictly comparable; let's see how they compare in the public sector pay area
