Royal College of Nursing warns new immigration laws could 'cause chaos' by forcing thousands of foreign nurses to leave

The transcript discusses the impact of new UK immigration laws requiring non-European nurses to earn at least £35,000 annually after six years to remain in the country. This policy affects many nurses, like Mark Mencius, who may be forced to leave despite their experience. The NHS, already facing staff shortages, relies on overseas nurses, and the policy could exacerbate the crisis. The Royal College of Nursing warns of chaos, while the government considers exemptions. The Migration Advisory Committee has not listed nursing as a shortage occupation, adding to the controversy.
