Now bored with the discussion, will return another time to discuss the issues, thanks

With all due respect this is rubbish....I can tell you from raw experience this is not the case, newly qualified nurses now fight for Jobs, the cohort of 2003 there were aprox 200+ newly qualified nurses, 80 obtained positions the remainder either looked for other employment or were actively encouraged to apply abroad. I attended a graduation as guest in 2004 where one of the lecturers was consoling some of the students (first class nurses by the way), his answer come and see me I've got a contract with a recruitment agency to get you work in Australia. This is not confined to nurses doctors are in the same position, we now have far to many doctors, I've spoken to many who have been quite upset that they now have to look beyond our shores for employment. The problem we have in this country is that our government see the employment of foreign skilled nationals as being the cheapest option. Why spend tens of thousands training an individual when it cost nothing to employ a trained foreign national. May I also add think about the countries these individuals come from, we as country are stripping them of their skilled workforce. I'll give Australia as an example they will no longer take any foreign nationals unless they meet a very very strict criteria, one being that applicants must prove they have an English secondary school education, I've seen firsthand the reason why this was implemented and though sad it was necessary. I suggest a little reading of the journals ascociated with these occupations, nursing standard, nursing times as well as the ascociated forums for both nurses and doctors.

I vote Labour but I don't agree with all their policies Can not dissagree that Germany holds more asylum seekers United Nation Migration statistics give support, however as you know once a person has been identified by a country within Europe as being an asylum seeker they are then prevented from travelling and seeking asylum in any other EU country, as a variety of documentries have shown many of those in Germany as well as other countries weren't entirely happy at being given assylum in that country, their main aim was to reach the UK. Germany also has an excellent record in repatriation a system in which the UK could learn a lot from. There's no lengthy appeal system, asylum seekers are housed in open hostels and given food vouchers, there is also a concerted effort by employers and the Govt in not employing asylum seekers, the penalties are far worse than in the UK. And why then are France allowing asylum seekers to set up camps whilst they attempt to reach the UK. Shouldn't the French border control be their on mass and processing them, rather than turning a blind eye. Yes we do have reciprocal arrangements however you only recieve bare minimum financial assistance, assistance that puts food on your table, you do not get housing your placed in a hostel, financial assistance to furnish your home with a wide varity of goods such as TV's/satalite systems, Washer dryers, cars etc, and lets not forget resettlement cash to spend on whatever you like. As for Australia I have only recent left and I can assure you that unless I hold permanent citizenship I would be deported. However I would have been held at a detention centre far out in the outback. Our record is somwhat poor to say the least here are a few of many, many examples, Roberto Malasi, an 18-year-old Angolan asylum seeker crime: at christening party shot dead a 33-year-old woman as she cradled her baby niece, before robbing guests. His three Nigerian accomplices all had past convictions. two weeks later Malasi stabbed to death an 18-year-old pastor's daughter who he felt had "disrespected" him. Yusuf Jama, a Somali asylum-seeker, was in the gang that shot dead Pc Sharon Beshenivsky in Bradford in 2005; Michal Pech, a Slovak army deserter, who shot dead his former lover, Clare Bernal, at Harvey Nichols department store in London in 2005, before shooting himself; David Bieber, an American bouncer wanted for murder in his homeland, who shot dead Pc Ian Broadhurst in Leeds in 2003; What do all these have in common they were all illegally in this country, and all had prior convictions, some were sentenced to deportation orders but during their appeals fled.

six-and-a-half-billion people on the Isle of Wight Mmmmm:loopy::hihi: where oh where do you get your facts,

, Dont have problem with people who come and contribute to our system, I work with many who do and value their contribution greatly. Yes no one can argue that this type of experience can not be fully appreciated and must cause the person immense psychological harm, and I for one don't dispute that they duly deserve our protection and help, but why do many of these individuals pass through so many safe countries, their primary aim to reach the UK. How many individuals are sat right now at Calais with similiar stories are they not now in a safe country, the difference being is they would not recieve the same ammount of financial benefits, they would be given a safe place to stay, (hostel, or designated centre) adequate food and clothing, not to mention access to health and psychological assistance. I know from fact having lived in Australia, Spain, Germany, Gibraltar that I wouldn't be entitled to any financial benefits from that country. This was reinforced whilst I was in Spain, I was injured and off work for quite sometime and not earning, when my finances ran out I enquired about financial assistance and was laughed out of their benefits office, further enquiries directed me to the embassy to seek emergency assistance to send me back home, thankfully although it was many years back I had family who bailed me out. In Australia I would have been deported immediatly if I was not working. I agree, however does that go for someone guilty of rape/assault, murder, peodophilia, enticing others to cause harm in the name of their religion, preaching hate for the country they hate so much and for those that remain silent when they know these acts are about to take place. I can think of many families in the UK who may wish that certain individuals had been deported, maybe then their loved ones would still be here today or those who suffer on a daily basis the psychological effects of their actions.

No when it becomes a criminal act, there was no problem preaching to his follows the views he and his particular section of his religious group believed, but when he begins in implying that his follows should applaud and consider joining the actions of these bombers then I for one feel (and the law apparently agrees) this is enticing others to commit a criminal act. Wasn't the shoe bomber one of his follows who attended his open preaching sessions?

Abu Hamza was allowed to preach is rhetoric; the problem began when he started to break the law by encouraging his supporters to go and kill innocent civilians, when he applauded the actions of the 9/11 and London bombers.

Neither would I want someone coming on a forum who quite obviously works for the Health Service, stating 'I know but can't tell you'. Wouldn't it be far better to keep quiet rather than contributing to fuelling the ongoing speculation? The fact that you are taking part in this discussion can be viewed as enticing others whilst there is also the issue of how would any manager be sure that you are not discussing this within the PM facility or in fact with friends. Finally I am bit concerned that you appear to believe that when the facts become known, you may then contribute to the discussion in more clarity, I would like to point out YOU ARE NOT!! This can still be viewed as disclosing confidential patient information.

Don't know if its the same shop, (John the bed man as we know him) he's just pass the post office on the right hand side there's big billboard on the wall just down the ally there's a wharehouse. Brilliant service, free delivery, free removal of your old bed and very cheap but good quality.

Good site, I checked sheffield forum, it gave me several month/year options to choose from, I chose 13-2-2002 and it seems not a lot has changed regarding some of the topics:(

By law they have to keep a copy for six years, after that they can destroy any recordings:)

The purpose of taking pain killers is to enable a person to function normally free of pain, it sounds to me that you do need to see a pain specialist; they have a far wider variety of pain control. Secondly when you do see the spinal specialist do not leave anything out, keep a diary of events, i.e. tingling, loss of sensation, breathing problems, due to intense pain and even embarrassing symptoms such as incontinence should not be left out. Spinal surgeons see and hear these symptoms on a daily basis and will sympathise as well assess the urgency of your case by some of the smallest details you give, whilst the effects on your personal psychology, daily living ability and effects on your family will all be taken into account. Good luck Madowl:)

First of all make sure you get a medical doctor or hospital record of your sons’ injuries, as for the cctv you are permitted under the freedom of information act to request any copies of images you believe are kept of you. You are therefore able to request these images from first, you give them the date & time and they should send you the images. Problem is companies such as first know your average Joe Bloggs doesn't know the law, plus they play games such as delaying hoping you'll just give up. My advice make enquiries with first ensuring you keep a good concise record, then contact a solicitor on your sons behalf and sue them, your son won't be charged by the solicitor they'll do all the work lik requesting cctv images and because of his age, don't use one of the company's which chase you see a local one Irwinns or kershaws'. Hope your son feels better soon.

You really do have my sympathy; back pain is a horrendous and debilitating condition to have to suffer with. The specialists’ you’re seeing at the NGH are some of the best in the country. (I presume it is this hospital) Have you asked at your GP or even last appointment whether they could refer you to a pain specialist doctor/nurse. The team at both NGH & RHH are incredibly good at assessing and recommending medications which may help in the short term, until your consultant decides which treatment may suit you better.
