We Want Nurses not Non Doms
Many of you tell me how hard it is to see a GP, to get an ambulance when you need one or
are waiting for an operation. Anyone who works in the NHS will tell you there aren't enough staff - we urgently need to retain existing staff and recruit new nurses and doctors to fix it.
Labour would abolish the special tax perk called ‘Non-Dom’ status because we believe those who live and work here should pay their taxes here. Instead, we’d spend the money on training new NHS staff.
​
We will be able to fund the biggest expansion of its workforce in NHS history:
-
doubling the number of medical school places,
-
creating 10,000 more nursing and midwifery clinical placements each year,
-
doubling the number of district nurses qualifying each year and
-
training 5,000 more health visitors
-
all paid for by abolishing the non-dom tax status.
