> when Britain's own young people were never going to do that work for the wages offered Too true. I’m from Canada where we worry nurses will go south of the border, but was recently in London at an NHS hospital and was talking about this with a nurse. Pay for nurses in Canada is on par with a Jr Developer here. (Still low for the hours and effort required!) By comparison, nurses in the UK make about as much as an intern or admin assistant. After all, single payer means there isn’t much pressure to raise wages from other sectors, you’ve a monopoly on nursing so you can set the wages at whatever level keeps staffing adequate, which isn’t the same thing as paying a living wage… |
