NHS spends £40m a year on 800 ‘diversity officers’
The NHS is spending £40million per year on diversity roles, it pays more than 800 staff at least £47,000 each, it has been revealed.
Diversity and Inclusion Officers are employed to promote equality within the health care system. It calculated that for the same £40million, the NHS could employ 1,200 extra nurses.
These shock findings have sparked anger, as many question why such huge sums are being spent on the roles, while many NHS workers are struggling to make ends meet amid the cost of living crisis.
The BNP would focus these precious resources on frontline services, more doctors and nurses are what is needed, not over paid pen pushers trying to push their equality agender upon the British public.
