They don’t want applause you ignorant fool!
Our nurses want a decent wage, better equipment and a medical team to match.
Stop following the UK with this pointless applauding. Look where it got their National Health Service after two years of clapping, flag waving, and banging of pots and pans. Nothing, nada, Zilch! They are now striking for more money and better working conditions.
Sounds familiar doesn’t it?
Molwyn ‘AstraZeneca’ Joseph … leave the studio man!
Molwyn ya full of sh%t. Get out now!
Lol u ain’t seeing the shots man
When the nurses leave for greener pastures they can target countries lower gdp than us to come work and replace the nurses like them from Cuba cuz Antigua wage higher than Cuba (check Dominica and they use ECD, and they wage low) so they can extend the time to keep paying ppl less
Use ya head nah man!!
With a foreigner working here u get to pay them less and still have immigration fees looming over their head, which is tax government money
That’s maths
They literally just brought like 7 or 10 Cubans for hospital to account for the over 100 something nurses saying that’s to help bridge the gap
Lmaooo u not thinking like the old generation they pass on problems and what’s not broken don’t fix
It’s by far easier to force an immigration trade off than to pay them more. So when ours migrate
Same thing, grass may be greener for them but not for the ones who been there originally
Vicious cycle huh
Lol
Yes they want ppl to resign…that how they plan to fix the ENORMOUS public sector wage bill. Get the Cubans and enrich the landlords (their friends) while ya own go ah foreign as a result of systemic frustration AND FORFEIT ANY PENSION DUE THEM
I think that MOLWYN is SATAN himself. I think that he is evil, wicked and thinks he must win at all costs (you can lock ya house from a tief, but you can’t lock ya house from a liar)
