Migrant health and care workers deserve better than this | Immigration and asylum

John Harris’s article is mentioned by March 2024 bases that prohibit new immigrant care workers from bringing the Almighty (In the NHS wing I saw how Britain relies on immigrants. However, we still tell them that they are not required, February 16).
The least well -known is that thousands of health and care workers who arrived before this date have also been prevented from bringing their children – most of them single mothers. A a report It was published on January 22 by taking action for South Africa, and Zimbabwe women revealed that thousands of single mothers, from Zimbabwe and other places, settled in their jobs only to be rejected visas for their children, who are waiting for a return to the homeland.
These mothers – who take care of our loved ones every day – have been separated from their children for years until now, and they provide multiple visas applications (some of which are used by non -consumer legal advisors in this process), because the Ministry of Interior rejects their “only” responsibility. This is. The concept created by UK and Migration visas (UKVI), which is difficult for single mothers to prove, as it extends beyond the idea “The only nursery”.
our a report The lack of clarity about the documents that UKVI will accept as a guide, the inconsistent application of its own guidance, and the evidence for the so -called anti -delay environmental tactics in decision -making.
The effect is destroyed on everyone. The mother of Zimbabwe was separated from her girl for about two years. It took six requests before giving visas (three for each child). Eight similar cases have been documented in our report, but thousands of children are still forgetful. Why is it acceptable to children from South Africa to stay away from their mothers for long periods of time? Echoes of Windrush are many.

I agree with sincerity with John Harris and “bitter tampering” to the situation in both in NHS And the care sector. Last summer, my 90 -year -old mother collapsed and moved to A& E in Worthing. The department was very busy, and the patients were taken care of in the corridor and ambulances arrived regularly. The Gulf in which my mother was working by two nurses from abroad, and they were interested in all their patients with perfect professionalism and kindness.
However, I was terrified of hearing the racist comments publicly made by the patients, as one of them declared loudly: “Look at what happened to our NHS.” In fact, absurdity. I left the administration, I was very grateful to the employees, angry, and incredibly embarrassed by what I witnessed.

John Harris’s article in time, but immigrants and their descendants are not only the backbone of NHS. My guardian is delivered by an Indian, and my teeth are preserved by an Indian. Our mail courier is 20 years old; Our local station has been opened and closed in evil hours by a Nigerian woman; The TV supermarket is almost exclusively increasing by South Asia. Our cat is packed regularly by people from Spain, Poland and India; The drivers on our local bus road recently included people from Ghana, Nepal, Somalia and Albania.
In addition to all these good people, when it fell on the basement and broke Fibola five years ago, it was excellently fixed by Turkish Cyprus. This devil must be subjected to immigrants for evil. Remember that the choir, Glory be to God, was written by an economic immigrant.
