- Lord John Mann, the government's independent adviser on antisemitism, has concluded an eight-month review into racism within the NHS.
- The review found that some Jewish NHS staff feel compelled to hide their religious identity due to antisemitism.
- Its recommendations call for improved reporting and learning from racist incidents, alongside updated training to address antisemitism and anti-Muslim hostility.
- Lord Mann said that NHS staff should not wear “political symbols” such as pro-Palestine or pro-Israel badges, and should not wear their uniform to political marches.
- The Royal College of Nursing and NHS Employers have welcomed the review, acknowledging a rise in racism within the health service and wider society.
