16 pictures of junior doctors taking part in first ever strike over pay at Altnagelvin

Junior doctors were in buoyant mood as they made history at Altnagelvin by taking part in industrial action for improved pay for the first time ever.

Local medics are taking part in the British Medical Association’s 24-hour full walkout from 8am on Wednesday to 8am on Thursday.

The strike action was called after 97.6 per cent of junior doctors balloted by BMA NI voted in favour of industrial action for full pay restoration to reverse over 16 years pay erosion.
