Grant permanent residency to Dr's, nurses and paramedics on temporary visas.
The Government needs to consider granting permanent residency instead of temporary visas to the NHS doctors, nurses and paramedics whose visas are about to expire and who are helping the UK in this time of national emergency.
We are going through an extremely difficult time for the UK. In this time we are relying on at least 3000 foreign Doctors, nurses and paramedics to get us through this major crises.
They are playing a critical part in saving British lives.
It would be wrong to extend their visas only for a year, just to send them home when our problem is over.
In order to say thank for helping us through our suffering it is upon the government to seriously consider granting permanent residency.
