Junior doctors and medical students in England have voted to reject the contract that has been offered to them by the government.

British Medical Association members voted 58% to 42% against accepting the deal.

BMA leaders had urged members to accept the terms, which were announced in May after talks with the government resumed following six strikes.

Alex Armitage is a junior doctor who works in an A&E unit in South London, he told Martha Kearney why he voted to reject the contract.
