I've lived in London for two years now and I've been massively affected by train strikes,
00:03
by nursery strikes, by the Royal Mail strike, everything.
00:08
But I think it is a right, that's the right that we all have in this economy and it's
00:13
fair, I think.
00:15
If you want to strike, you have the right to strike.
00:17
I think that's the only power you have as an employee.
00:20
Well, I think if, you know, it suits them, fair enough, but we are being looked after
00:26
by the juniors and whoever is there.
00:30
It doesn't matter how much they're earning, if you're doing that job and that's the pay
00:35
that you're entitled to and you should be getting, then we should be rewarding that.
00:40
And if it's a case of they can go abroad and get that pay, what's stopping them?
00:45
We need to keep them here.
00:46
I understand they're very well trained, so they deserve to be well paid.
00:51
But I feel averaging £90,000 to £120,000 is a reasonable salary living in London.
00:59
Yeah.
