It is a lie
What is it you dont understand.
Johnson and his cabinet are liars, the Conservative campaign was full of dishonesty.
The country hased voted in a leader totally lacking in integrity to deliver a brexit which is not deliverable.
We can expect 5 years of lies and propaganda, if you support the lie about 50,000 nurses no doubt you will fully applaud the
Oh please, dont be so silly.
If you employ 100 people today and you manage to persuade those 100 people to stay your wage bill is 100 people
2019 Nurses in NHS 290,000. Wage bill = 290,000 nurses salaries.
19,000 nurses decide to leave wage bill = 271,000 nurses salaries
19,000 nurses are pursuaded not to leave = 290,000 nurses salaries.
290,000 - 290,000 = 0
No difference to wage bill.
Tory manifesto mentioned nothing about retention, it states 50,000 more nurses.
More means more
The word more means, more than currently exists today.
Not tomorrow
Not next week
Not in 5 years time.
Today.
290,000 nurses in NHS today.
More means 290,000 + 50,000
Ps, government are working on reducing attrition from around 12% down to 6%, but arent budgeting for any changes to make that reduction.
Experts in healthcare say government have diddly squat chance of achieving a retention of 19,000.
Its a bit pointless discussing the detail for two reasons:
1. The micro detail of how the increase in nurses will be achieved or funded isn't available to us.
2. You have clearly made your mind up that the tories are lying.
Lets see what happens over the next 5 years then. I think you'll be proved wrong.
