Certainly they need to look at how to make Nursing a more attractive profession to young people in this country, and recent decisions on that front have been woefully bad, but that's not at all in opposition to what Stirling is saying - long term, we can address skill shortages through domestic policy changes.

Having said that, the current set up is destined to fail; quite why anyone would train for 5+years, saddle themselves with tens of thousands of pounds of debt, to then work one of the most stressful jobs imaginable for £25k a year, I really don't know. You'd have to be a far better person than me.

Deportation should be scrapped altogether.

The whole new 'deportation' industry scrapped through its cost in terms of gross incompetence, human misery and money-making, including sacking home office officials.

Has anybody noticed that the price of their incompetence and racial bullying is an increase in their numbers?

To do what, rectify the mess they made themselves !!!!!!

And they will screw that up to.

You may have to deport a few individuals but you don't need any of this.

Yep, funny how failure by contracted-out public service providers often results in "learning the lessons" by awarding even more public money to the same failing providers.

Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

I read that Boris J. is unhappy and I see why.

There is a generation of tories, MacMillan Heath Butler McLeod Joseph and more that had an aura of responsibility and trust for many lower or working class non-white people.

That has been removed by institutionalised racial intolerance, bullying of admirable people we should be grateful for.

Boris could have realised that a substantial minority of people have been lost to due to this, certainly enough to swing an election, now they see what racialism is and it is tory clear as day.

I would welcome a labour win and seeing faces representing a cross-section of the population, the pre-suez outlook of Mrs May buried with the class and racial intolerance of those times too.

The Windrush generation and countless commonwealth people trusted us and fought with us in WW2 with hardly a consideration that it did not affect them directly.

We have failed them and it is a national disgrace.

You ought to know..........

Open goal there H, had to tap it in.
