Unite Statement on Margaret Haywood

Unite has released the following statement concerning Margaret Haywood, the nurse who was struck of the register by the NMC after she exposed poor care at her hospital in Brighton. Of course, the NMC claim it was for breaching confidentiality (the same charge levelled against Graham Pink twenty years ago) and not for highlighting the poor care the elderly were receiving at her hospital.

There is also a letter of support from Professor PJ Barker, a fellow of the Royal College of Nursing.
