So in a major U-turn – Boris Johnson has asked the Home Office to remove foreign NHS and care workers from the immigration health surcharge as soon as …
45 Comments on “NHS fees for migrant health workers scrapped in government U-turn Updated for 2024”
All immigrants are important as the health care workers, so it should be apply to everyone.
More like political populist move to run away from the issue that has haunted medical workers for years but in this case for the right reason. If they kept this NHS fees Boris party wouldn't get elected next time because opposition and most important the people would eat him without the salt. If I was in Labor place I would try to push furthermore and find a way to pay back in a smaller amount over the years the NHS fee.
The lady who was from Jamaica sure had money to pay for a lovely garden, compared to her next door neighbor.
Unbelievable I think you a none key worker fair enough but if you are working in the nhs why or why should you pay ? Itโs crazy and outright racist tbh
Thanks NHS๐๐คฉ๐คโค๐๐๐ป๐
What about the undocumented also risking their life as carers.
Good interviewer
Racists brit left the chat๐๐.
Here we go C4 with there EU minorities propaganda which they spew out every single day just like all the MSM, I mean go watch the commercials on C4 and spot the BRITISH person! Bet you donโt.
Wtf crazy people … They took your freedom and are you are cheering…I know people use 10% of the brain but in your case is 0.01
So if I work in a restaurant, I can just eat in this restaurant for free because I also provide services? It is double-taxing immigrants that's unfair, which of course remain unquestioned.
Appalling basic grasp of what's being discussed here, people just open their mouths and spew bile with no idea of the facts. They seem unable to spend a few minutes reading about what has been happening, before venting their opinions, making them look like complete morons. No wonder we have Boris in power, sheer ignorance, the truth, not relevant apparently.
The comments section speaks volumes as to the stupidity that is so characteristic of the British populace.
I lived and worked overseas for almost 20 years and I always had to pay for my own healthcare. It is normal.
Sounds practical with a caution….. How long is the wait for British people to be seen by a doctor at this time? Iโm not being facetious, I donโt know. In the USA for instance, if you go to an emergency room for an actual emergency and youโre not bleeding much or youโre not having a heart attack, the wait is a couple hours. This is because most migrants go to emergency for flu (before this latest event) or bad colds. With your new bill, the wait could be doubled. If I could change anything about how this works, I would have a section for people that could wait till the next day and people that actually need to see a doctor within minutes. The need for migrants to be seen is important because something could spread to the population. Here, we have a problem, sometimes because even though they can get medical help they are sometimes here illegally and are afraid to go to the doctor/hospital but in reality, the Boarder Patrol doesnโt check medical facilities.
NHS surcharge should be scrapped altogether they already pay tax Enough discrimination We need fairness
load of spin and dustbin politics . your being controlled what to think .all nhs workers must get rewards in this time of horror
So why do people pay the NI? So after paying NI we still have to pay 630 for Surcharge how is that I don't get it .
Wow. Such a great news… Please I wish to know when this Surcharge exemption could be put into law.
Great, now it's time to stop the surcharge for all immigrants, and compensate them for what this hateful Tory government has been extorting from them so far.
Why are health workers better than other migrants ๐ค
TV interview a hospital cleaner from Syria moaning about the payments he had to make since arriving his home country. Grateful for being given a job and refuge in a safe country, No not all all.
I have always said this……..
The National Health Service (NHS) should be renamed the International Heath Service (IHS) because itโs worked mostly by the peoples of other nations.
Good morning thanks for your prayers your love and support your family friend appreciate you all thanks stay blessed thanks
Even in the middle of a pandemic Britian still has racists attacking immigrants,shameful.
I CANNOT BELIEVE THE STUPIDITY OF THE PEOPLE THAT OPENLY AGREE TO LOSING THEIR HERITAGE, THEIR WELL BEING AND THE FUTURE BENEFITS OF THEIR OWN CHILDREN. THOUSANDS OF SQUARE MILES OF LAND IS BEING BUILT ON TO HOUSE THE INFLUX OF MIGRANTS. THOSE MIGRANTS, MOST OF WHICH ARE UNSKILLED HAVE PUT MASSIVE PRESSURE ON OUR NHS, SCHOOLS AND WELFARE SYSTEM. DO THESE PEOPLE REALLY BELIEVE THAT MIGRANTS COME TO ENGLAND TO HELP US? THE BIGGEST PERCENTAGE OF MIGRANTS ARE HERE TO BETTER THEMSELVES AT THE EXPENSE OF OUR CHILDRENS FUTURE. PEOPLE BLINDLY WELCOME THEM WHEN THE TRUTH IS THEY ARE OVER POPULATING OUR COUNTRY AT AN ALARMING RATE. IN THE YEARS TO COME WHEN THEIR CHILDREN HAVE NO FREE HEALTH CARE, NO DECENT HOMES TO LIVE IN, NO ROOM IN SCHOOLS FOR THEIR GRANDCHILDREN AND NO PARKS AND OPEN SPACES TO PLAY ON…MAYBE THEY WILL THEN REALISE HOW STUPID THEY HAVE BEEN.
Thats great news for our frontline staff but i don't trust ANY tory ,not after this pandemic ,so keep fighting for your rights guys.SOLIDARITY.
Boris had to be shamed into it …he will a holiday after that
If you pay income tax to the UK government you should be entitled to use the NHS – period! If you voted Tory simply because of their catchy "Get Brexit Done" slogan, you're an idiot – period!
What a joke whatโs the point of clapping when the fast majority of these people voted for a government that keeps undermining NHS. The same government is giving themselves a 10 K bonus by the end of this year but find it problematic when we talk about pay rates for healthcare workers.
Centuries of land theft and genocide…ur babies..u pay the child support…karma.
Rubbish Clapping from Hypocrite Boris.
UK covid outcome has been very dismally poor
Tax must tax must !
If we keep hiring than what will happen to locals/.and more population from overseas.
What about more taxes/National insurance !
Inveded/Occupied ! By out Siders !???
What about local nurses/and jobs to Citizens !!
Offer jobs to locals/citizen
The only goal of the Govt. is to make money.
Does this include dependents of the Nhs workers? Because I have been having insomnia since am due to renew my family visa by November.
More help for immigrants and discrimination against indigenous British people.
They should scrap the surcharge but the real issue is the woman is in financial distress because she can't pay 265 pounds.
