  • Comment on: Calls to ban 'nasty, racist' BNP members from nursing

    Penny Smith's comment 21-Apr-2009 1:50 pm

    I find the contents of this article both deeply disturbing and distasteful. I am sure there were those in Nazi Germany who put forward a similarly hateful case for the removal of Jews from that country's heath care and nursing professions in the 1930s. Perhaps the question should be whether there is a place in nursing and health care for people, such as those in Unison’s Health Care Service Group, who clearly want to discriminate and persecute others for no other reason than they object to their political views? As an aside, I note that UNISON is affiliated to the Labour Party, an organisation that, in my opinion, has done a lot of damage to both the NHS and health care in the country in recent years. Nursing is about caring - not hating - a lesson these UNISON/Labour people clearly need to learn.
