What about foreign workers in the NHS? I accompanied someone today for a
minor operation, and of the dozen or more staff we came into contact
with (from receptionist to surgeon) only three appeared (from their
accents) to be born and bred in the UK.
Nobody ever accused the Bexiteers of being excessively rational!
Except that they do, mostly, accept we need the skilled workers
it's the unskilled ones (without jobs, when they arrive) that we don't need
So simply limit the number of work permits (and new NI numbers) for such
roles.
I could be wrong, but I think you need to be sponsored by an employer to
get an NI number. And they don't expire when you go back home for the
winter. Next summer, that person now has an NI number already when they
return to be working.
Yes, I think that's correct. Maybe we need a new class of time-limited
(but renewable) NI numbers for people who don't have an automatic
right to work in the UK?
Much of the discussion here has been about it being "too difficult" to
administer a widespread work-permit scheme, and then weed out the
economic migrants from the tourists at the border.
I really don't think we should be doing it at the border.
