As a front line Registered Nurse I can confirm that Peter is (as always) spot on and speaking truth to power. The nursing bursary in England scrapped by the Government (which reimbursed tuition fees) has not been reinstated. It’s worrying the Prime Minister doesn’t know this….
Squirming Prime Minister tries to justify not giving nurses a pay rise saying Government has “reinstituted nurses bursaries.” Complete boll****. Government scrapped bursary which previously reimbursed their tuition fees so nurses now qualify tens of thousands of pounds in debt!

- your vote 🗳️ is your democratic right and voice 🗣️please use it. Keep up the great work 🌟✊🏻
Press attacks, across many right wing papers, are a coordinated attempt to distract from the big issues:
1⃣Our collapsing health service and failing government 🏥
2⃣The growing resistance of health workers like you🧑⚕️
3⃣The need for you to Vote Yes❎and return your ballot📮
