Correct.

The NHS will always have an international workforce, which is a strength.

But the failure to develop home-grown talent has made us over-reliant on people overseas, with consequences for other countries who need their own people, too.

Labour has a fully-funded plan…

Speaking of work/pay conditions in #SLT #NHS, we deserve a higher pay. Speech and language therapists save lives. We treat people with swallowing problems and prevent choking/ aspiration pneumonia/ death. We improve quality of life. @RCSLT @NHSEngland
