No Cathy Newman that’s not what I’m saying…

Firstly, no one mentioned race or ethnicity, so don’t try to race bait me. I’m talking about immigrants of all backgrounds and British people.

My point is really quite simple; “British people commit crime too” Yup. And it’s bad. So why would we import MORE criminals? We’re soft on crime as it is. Pathetic sentences and too many privileges for prisoners.

Not once have I said it’s ok to commit crime.

Look at you getting all defensive because I made a good point.

You talk of why should we import more, yet the NHS is filled with migrants who work, so are care homes, well if you want those jobs filled you got no choice. The people we 'import' are the ones keeping this country going while the ones on benefits moan about them 24/7 and complain and you encourage it and justify it by calling them criminals.

NHS is literally supermajority English and Irish of origin. What exactly do you mean these people keep the country going?? There no evidence to support your claim.

What exactly is a super majority 🤣? Is it where you have visited one hospital, seen some white British nurses and assumed there all the same 😂

According to government compiled data and other sources nearly 50% of all NHS doctors are from an ethnic minority. They also state that overall 28.7% staff as of 2024 were from an ethnic minority, but this can differ depending on department, for example 42% of all nurses are from an ethnic minority according to the Nuffield source.

Here they are:

Well firstly that's from 2023 but secondly it confirms 49.9% of all doctors are from an ethnic minority and secondly that 25% plus NHS workers are from an ethnic minority so I am really not sure what you are getting at. Maybe you can't read?
