The median annual wage for Registered Nurses is £23,026. That means 50% get less than half that. None of them get anywhere near £35,000. 90% get less than £31,000.

The fact that this is a vicious and stupid policy won't get the Tories to drop it, obviously. And right now they won't be worried about making people hate and despise them. But maybe in two years after their 12 vote majority has been whittled down a bit and this is supposed to take effect they might get cold feet.

Without Filipino nurses I reckon I'd have died a couple of years ago. None of them will be getting paid anything like £35,000.
