Junior doctors in Scotland are getting paid the same as sandwich shop baristas with many taking on second jobs to get by, their union has warned.
Even though they take life or death decisions every day some junior doctors are paid just over £27,500 a year - which works out at £14 an hour - the same as some staff at sandwich shop Pret a Manger.
A new survey by doctors union the BMA shows more than 55 per cent of junior doctors have taken on extra shifts to help pay their bills.
