2/ #Starmer has already tackled this issue. Statistically it could take up to 18 years to have permanent UK only residents working within the NHS, & to remove all vestiges of the private sector.

These are empirical, independently verified figures, which show how long it will realistically take to reverse 13 years of criminal Tory mismanagement, & the destruction of our public services & utility infrastructure

Now tell me your alternative

No. It was #Starmer's response to the #Tories accusing him of wanting to open the immigration floodgates, hence why everyone should vote #Tory to protect Brexit.

So in the short-term, Labour suggest targeted immigration to urgently fill NHS vacancies, but his long-term aim is to train UK workers to fill these voids, thus reducing the UK's reliance on oversea workers.

We're battleing with the Tories on many fronts, immigration be just one
