When waiting for Emma to finish work I am sure I see Nurses walking out of work and they seem to be from all over the world and I am sure that if you are from another country and that country is wanting people in your line of work well you are welcome.
Could it be the wages are better somewhere else? Canada is calling for nurses so they are off there, there could be many many reasons why people don't want to move here now, but there is nothing better than bad news to sell papers and to get people's backs up.
Good news no one is interested in, and the good news today is, I'm still here.
Take a look at the immigration rules Steve, I think you will find it's down to the fact that they need to earn a certain amount of money before they can be granted a Visa, that's why these newspapers & Politicians always say we welcome people from outside the UK who will benefit our economy, such as Doctors, Scientists etc etc, but its not only these people that we are short of, look at the people who wipe bums in Care homes, where will they come from? They certainly won't earn the salary requirement to get a visa.
