I agree but never in our worlds history has it been as encouraged or easy. It used to be the brave few now it is the majority 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not here to comment on the states. It's immoral and ridiculous for Britain to base it's provision of medical and care staff on importing them from abroad.

Not quite sure what your point is....do you think it's good Britain is dependent on foreign health care staff. I don't. But I'm aware it can't be solved by just stopping or making it harder for them to come Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My point is your original choice of word didn’t fit,you said UK stole healthcare staff,I said the UK doesn’t steal them,the UK offers a better work package than their home countries,no stealing,it’s incentivisation.

Now its full of tattooed dykes with the side shave and rainbow lanyards on full display, there should be no politics in the nhs, and it should be made up of majority of our own with free tuition from the unis, its a disgrace our own peoples have to pay through the nose for something we are in short supply off, our whole system needs reforming, well done for your nhs service, thats some time youve put in helping those who need it 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 53,005 Posted 19 minutes ago Report Share Posted 19 minutes ago (edited) The NHS is one of the places where the catastrophe and betrayal of immigration is laid bare ! Its there for all to see. The reports are a little difficult to find on the web but they are there and they will show that not bothering to train our own young people as doctors and Nurses saves the various governments billions !……what did they do with these billions ?, well they didn’t invest it back into our young people that’s for sure so I’m guessing they just pissed it away like they did all the rest ! Instead they followed an active policy of stealing healthcare professionals from the 3rd world, while at the same time also massively inflating the population with the 3rd world and driving down wages whilst simultaneously putting pressure on houses and services ! So costs for ordinary people went up while wages stagnated ! All of this required a massive lowering of the professional bar in the NHS and the social bar in the wider community…..some of the fallout of which can be witnessed in an A&E across the country every weekend, it can been seen by the stab kits paramedics now routinely carry on the front seat because it’s not worth putting them away. A far cry from the high trust society and matron ran healthcare system upto around the time I was born. Where pride and professionalism used to pervade now we have a 3rd world can’t be arsed attitude to a service that’s meant to save people and our own good people can’t afford to work there or don’t fit in and don’t want to work amongst such shoddy people ! The NHS is probably one of the greatest examples of everything bad about flooding your country with Africans and Pakis and various odd marks dragged from piss holes around the globe !
