针对英国护士的种族歧视事件激增55%
——皇家护理学院呼吁政府停止使用反移民的言论，称这助长了种族主义行为
(The RCN said it was a ‘mark of shame’ that racist incidents were rising across health and care services.)

新闻：
The number of reports by nurses of racist incidents at work has risen by 55% over three years, according to analysis by the nursing unx.
根据护士工会的分析，三年来，护士对工作中种族歧视事件的报告数量上升了55%。
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) expects to receive more than 1,000 calls this year from nurses seeking advice and support after racist incidents in the workplace, compared with almost 700 cases in 2022.
皇家护理学院预计今年将收到1000多个护士打来的电话，寻求在工作场所发生种族主义事件后的建议和支持，而2022年这一数字为近700个。
Examples of racist abuse reported to its helpline include a nurse whose annual leave was denied being told by their manager that they should not have come to the UK, and another RCN member being told by a colleague: “I want to remind you that you’re not one of us.”
向皇家护理学院热线举报的种族主义虐待案例包括：一名护士的经理告诉她不应该来英国，而拒绝了她的年假；另一名皇家护理学院成员被同事告知：“我想提醒你，你不是我们中的一员。”
Other racist incidents reported to the unx include a patient and their family repeatedly refusing care from a nurse because they said they didn’t want “people like her” treating them and referring to the nurse as a “slave”. Another member was subjected to racist remarks including being told that you could only see black people’s teeth “when it’s dark”.
向工会报告的其他种族主义事件包括一名病人及其家人多次拒绝护士的护理，因为他们说他们不希望“像她这样的人”照顾他们，并将护士称为“奴隶”。另一名成员遭到种族主义言论，包括被告知“天黑的时候”只能看到黑人的牙齿。
Prof Nicola Ranger, the RCN general secretary and chief executive, said it was a “mark of shame” that racist incidents were rising across health and care services.
皇家护理学院秘书长兼首席执行官尼古拉·兰杰教授表示，种族主义事件在医疗和护理服务领域不断上升，这是一个“耻辱的标志”。
She said: “Every single ethnic minority nursing professional deserves to go to work without fear of being abused, and employers have a legal duty to ensure workplaces are safe. These findings must refocus minds in the fight against racism.
她说：“每一个少数族裔护理专业人士都应该不用担心被虐待而去工作，雇主有法律责任确保工作场所的安全。这些发现必须让人们重新关注反对种族主义的斗争。
“If health and care employers fail to make their workplaces a safe environment for nursing staff, it is unsurprising that those same staff leave and their services are [left] less safely staffed.”
“如果医疗和护理部门的雇主不能为护理人员创造一个安全的工作环境，那么这些员工离开，并且他们的服务变得不那么安全，就不奇怪了。”
The nursing unx has urged the government to stop using anti-migrant rhetoric, which it said was putting staff at risk.
护士工会敦促政府停止使用反移民的言论，称这将使工作人员处于危险之中。
Ranger said: “The reality is that our health and social care system only functions because nursing staff of every ethnicity, nationality and faith make it so. We are urging government and politicians of all parties to recognise their role in tackling racism – and that must include an end to the use of anti-migrant rhetoric, which only risks emboldening racist behaviour.”
兰杰称：“现实情况是，我们的健康和社会护理系统之所以能正常运行，是因为各个种族、国籍和信仰的护理人员都在努力。我们敦促政府和各党派的政客们认识到他们在解决种族主义问题上的作用，这必须包括停止使用反移民的言论，因为这只会让种族主义行为更加肆无忌惮。”
The RCN also called on employers to prioritise tackling racism and to work with trade unxs to establish stronger mechanisms to protect staff.
皇家护理学院还呼吁雇主优先解决种族主义问题，并与工会合作建立更强有力的机制来保护员工。
A spokesperson for the Department of Health and Social Care said: “These stark figures are shocking and our thoughts are with the victims of this vile abuse.
卫生和社会保障部的一位发言人说：“这些赤裸裸的数字令人震惊，我们的心与这种卑鄙虐待行为的受害者同在。
“Racism and discrimination are unacceptable and will not be tolerated in our NHS. The Prime Minister has ordered an urgent review of all forms of racism in the NHS, as part of wider efforts to tackle discrimination in the health service.
“种族主义和歧视是不可接受的，在我们的国家医疗体系是不能容忍的。英国首相下令紧急审查国民保健服务体系中所有形式的种族主义，作为解决卫生服务中歧视问题的更广泛努力的一部分。
“We value the diversity of our NHS, which relies on the skill and dedication of nursing staff fromall backgrounds – hardworking staff, who keep our health service running caring for patients, must be treated with dignity and respect.”
“我们重视国家医疗体系的多样性，这依赖于来自不同背景的护理人员的技能和奉献精神——使我们的医疗服务得以运行，照顾病人的努力工作的员工，他们必须得到尊严和尊重。”

And there are politicians who want to normalise racism.
还有一些政客想让种族主义正常化。

The United Kingdom is becoming quickly inhospitable to a variety of minority groups. The end goal of this hostility is they’ll leave. Of course, to people like Reform and their voters, this is part and parcel for their ideology, this racism is the method they use to obtain a “pure” Britain.
But when these minorities are gone, we won’t have anyone to replace them in their fields or the lives of their friends.
英国正迅速变得对各种少数群体不友好。这种敌意的最终目的是让他们离开。当然，对于改革党和他们的选民这样的人来说，这就是他们意识形态的一部分，这种种族主义是他们用来获得“纯粹”英国的方法。
但是，当这些少数族裔消失后，我们将没有任何人在他们的领域或他们朋友的生活中取代他们。

It's a shame they try this tactic, because I can't even go anywhere if I wanted to. Lived here since I was 9 months old and im 17 now, I have about enough arabic to talk to my family and thats it, couldn't make a life back in Iraq if I wanted to.
他们尝试这种策略真是太可耻了，因为即使我想走，我也不能去任何地方。我从9个月大的时候就住在这里，现在我17岁了，我基本能用阿拉伯语和我的家人交谈，就是这样，如果就算我想回伊拉克生活，我也做不到。

Anyone who racially abuses healthcare professionals - or indeed abuses anyone on ward in any way - should automatically go right to the back of the care queue. And be made to wait until there is anyone on duty willing to help them.
任何种族歧视医疗专业人员的人——或者以任何方式虐待病房里的任何人——都应该自动排到医疗队伍的最后。他们不得不等待，直到有值班的人愿意帮助他们。

Reading some stories, that does happen to a degree - if you piss off the triage nurse or nurse in charge don't be surprised if (as long as medically stable) you end up 'forgotten about' if everyone else is arguably just as unwell as you and they are spending their energy prioritising the patients who are being patient and kind.
I'm not sure it's supposed to happen but these systems have ways for people to exert that influence so it pays dividends for you to be courteous and polite to whomever you're relying on to help you.
I would say the only thing to balance is if someone is ill, sick, or suffering, them lashing out and being frustrated shouldn't be penalised harshly as it's not a fun place to be. There have to be boundaries of course and racist abuse is far past those, but if someone starts effing and blinding because they've been waiting in A&E for 12 hours I think staff/leaders should understand the root cause there is the frustration with the wait and heavily penalising patients is not moving things in the right direction.
读了一些故事，这种情况确实在一定程度上发生了——如果你惹恼了分诊护士或主管护士，如果其他人都和你一样不舒服，他们会把精力花在优先照顾耐心和善良的病人上，如果你最终被“遗忘”（只要医学状态稳定），不要感到惊讶。
我不确定这是否应该发生，但这些系统有办法让人们施加影响，所以对你所依赖的帮助你的人彬彬有礼是有好处的。
我想说的是，唯一要平衡的是，如果有人生病了，或者遭受了痛苦，他们的发泄和沮丧不应该受到严厉的惩罚，因为这不是一个有趣的地方。当然，这是有界限的，种族歧视远远超出了这些，但如果有人因为在急诊室等了12个小时而开始大喊大叫，我认为工作人员/领导应该理解根本原因，那就是对等待的失望，对病人的严厉惩罚并没有把事情朝着正确的方向发展。

Effing and jeffing from frustration is understandable. Though frontline staff who have to face this often can't do much to change the poor infrastructural conditions leading to said frustration.
But racist, sexist, homophobic, generally hateful effing and jeffing that targets specific individuals is not ever acceptable, and should come with consequences.
因为沮丧而大喊大叫是可以理解的。尽管不得不面对这种情况的一线工作人员往往无法改变导致上述挫折的恶劣基础设施条件。
但是，针对特定个人的种族主义、性别歧视、同性恋恐惧症，以及通常充满仇恨的谩骂和嘲笑，永远都是不可接受的，应该为此承担后果。

I think that you would be surprised what most nurses will tolerate in terms of abuse tbh. We know people who are in pain will not be themselves, and we know that someone who is mentally ill might have in ways that would mortify them when well.
I don't think racial abuse is the same. Being in pain or frustration doesn't make anyone shout racial slurs, and there is a consequence to this.
Nurses use discretionary time and resources (staying late, missing breaks, going the extra mile to chase something etc). Will I keep doing my job to provide safe care to someone who has just called my colleague a slur? Yep. Am I going to do anything beyond than what's acceptable, expected and safe? Absolutely not.
谁实话，我认为你会惊讶于大多数护士对虐待的容忍程度。我们知道痛苦中的人会丧失理性，我们也知道患有精神疾病的人可能会做出一些让他们在健康时感到羞耻的事情。
我不认为种族歧视是同一回事。痛苦或沮丧并不会让任何人喊出种族歧视，并且这是有后果的。
护士使用自由裁量的时间和资源（加班、错过休息、加班等等）。我还会继续我的工作，为刚刚辱骂我同事的人提供安全护理吗？是的。我是否会做一些超出可接受、预期和安全范围的事情？绝对不会。

So this is how far down the road to outright racism and xenophobia in the media and certain political ideology has taken many people. Some actually now feel that is acceptable to racially insult and slur the very people that are trying to made them better, fix broken bones and stitch them up.
There needs to be legislation that if such things happen, the doctor or nurse administering treatment can just walk away from that person - even if they will bleed out or die from a heart attack. It goes against the hippocratic oath that they have pledged to when becoming doctors. Nursing staff shouldn't have to put up with such racism in the workplace.
所以，这就是媒体和某些政治意识形态中公然的种族主义和仇外心理让许多人走了多远。实际上，有些人现在认为，种族侮辱和诽谤那些试图让他们变得更好、修复骨折并缝合伤口的人是可以接受的。
需要立法规定，如果发生这种情况，负责治疗的医生或护士可以离开病人——即使他们会失血过多或死于心脏病发作。这违背了他们在成为医生时许下的希波克拉底誓言。但护理人员不应该在工作场所忍受这种种族歧视。

I feel like it'd be much much better if they just get prosecuted after treatment. They became doctors to help and they're such good souls that 9 times out of 10 they don't have it in themselves to turn away a critical condition patient, racist or not.
我觉得如果他们在治疗后被起诉会好得多。他们成为医生是为了提供帮助，他们是如此善良的灵魂，十有八九他们不会拒绝一个危急的病人，不管其是不是种族主义者。

It’s only going to get worse before it gets better I’m afraid. And not just in the UK. Once again the far right rises. This happens as a consequence of austerity, poor economies, and displaced migration. It’s easier to blame a group of people rather than look at themselves. I look around at Britain and it’s crumbling. Services are breaking, mistakes are happening. There is more cheer in a graveyard than a town centre. Immigration is a factor sure, but so is the amount of people who are healthy and of working age wanting benefits, huge amounts going on strike wanting more pay. We are SKINT as a country and underground tube workers want a pay increase. They earn more than some professionals in the country lol. It’s so pathetic. They have 3 buttons. Forward, brake, and mind the gap.
恐怕情况在好转之前只会变得更糟。而且不仅仅是在英国。极右翼势力再次崛起。这是紧缩政策、经济不景气和移民流离失所的后果。指责一群人比审视自己更容易。我环顾四周，发现英国正在崩溃。服务正在中断，错误正在发生。墓地里比市中心更热闹。移民当然是一个因素，但同样重要的还有那些身体健康、处于工作年龄、想要福利的人，还有大批罢工的人想要加薪。作为一个国家，我们很穷，地铁工人要求加薪。可他们比国内一些专业人士赚得还多，呵呵。太可悲了。他们（的工作内容）就是3个按钮：前进、刹车、注意间隙。

My mom works in a care home and everyday she's called slurs, was punched by an old man in the nose once and came home with blood all over her shirt, I hate seeing it but she loves her job. I feel so bad for her having to deal with these people.
She bathes them, feeds them, gives them medication, wipes their backside, all whilst being racist to her. It's disgusting. She was so happy when she achieved her qualifications that allowed her to work this job but I know deep down it affects her.
我妈妈在一家养老院工作，每天她都被人骂脏话，有一次她被一个老人打了鼻子一拳，回家时衬衫上全是血，我讨厌看到这些，但她热爱自己的工作。我为她和这些人打交道感到难过。
她给他们洗澡，喂他们吃饭，给他们吃药，擦他们的屁股，与此同时她遭受着种族歧视。很恶心。当她获得资格证书，可以从事这份工作时，她非常高兴，但我知道这在内心深处影响了她。

I ended up in hospital last month for a few days, on the first night there was a few older people on my ward who said a few horrible things however they had no idea where they were or what was wrong with them. The nursing staff were so patient and good with them.
The second night I was on a different ward and there were people who were fully aware of where they were saying even worse things to the nurses including racial abuse. Just because they weren’t getting all the attention at once or treating it like a hotel with first class service.
One Nurse was being given a lot of abuse from one guy in the middle of the night and she came to my bed to check something and I was amazed at how well she was able to present herself just seconds after hearing that stuff.
上个月我在医院干了几天，最后不干了，第一天晚上，我的病房里有几个老人，他们说了一些糟糕的话，但他们不知道自己在哪里，也不知道自己怎么了。护理人员很有耐心，对他们很好。
第二天晚上，我在另一个病房，有些完全意识到他们在哪里的人对护士说了更难听的话，包括种族歧视。只是因为他们没有立刻得到所有的关注，或者把它当作是一家提供一流服务的酒店。
一个护士在半夜被一个男人骂了一顿，她来到我的床上检查一些东西，我很惊讶她在听到这些东西几秒钟后就能很好地调整自己的状态。

Racist abuse, and in fact any abuse, of healthcare workers (or any other worker, for example retail) is utterly unacceptable and needs zero tolerance and to be legally prosecuted. I have also witnessed patients swear at and threaten medical staff and it appeared that nothing was done, which is unacceptable.
However, I would have one concern regarding this.
I once had a medical situation while in hospital. Unfortunately, the two staff on hand, who were both from different minority backgrounds, were unable to speak or understand English well enough to understand what I needed to tell them.
I had to cope with the fear of being unable to communicate to get medical help or understanding.
I stayed calm and polite, but I could imagine someone in a medical emergency being extremely frightened if staff could not understand them. I would not want someone who, during a medical emergency, ended up saying 'I need to speak to someone who speaks English properly!' to be punished for this.
种族主义虐待，实际上对医疗工作者（或任何其他工人，比如零售工人）的任何虐待都是完全不可接受的，需要零容忍，并将受到法律起诉。我也目睹过病人咒骂和威胁医务人员，但似乎什么后果也没有，这是不可接受的。
然而，我对此有一个担忧。
我曾经在医院里出过一次病。不幸的是，在场的两名工作人员都来自不同的少数民族背景，他们不能很好地说或理解英语，无法理解我需要告诉他们的事情。
我必须克服无法沟通的恐惧，以获得医疗帮助或理解。
我保持冷静和礼貌，但我可以想象，如果工作人员听不懂他们的话，有人在医疗紧急情况下会非常害怕。我不希望有人在医疗紧急情况下最终说：“我需要和能说一口流利英语的人说话！”，然后要为此受到惩罚。

Totally nothing to do with Reform/Brexit/Ukip campaigning on barely disguised racism and rabid nationalism for the last 20+ years. Farage and his ilk have made it ok to be publicly racist again
与在过去的20多年里，改革党/脱欧派/英国独立党几乎不加掩饰的种族主义和狂热的民族主义竞选完全没有关系。法拉奇和他的同类们再次公开表达种族主义是可以接受的（译注：反讽）

And more to the point, that is all they have to offer. They're demonstrably incompetent, incapable of any kind of organisation and led by a lazy conman. All that they have to offer is making Britain worse in every way except making it normal to be racist. And that's enough for a lot of British people. All that they want out of life is to be racist. Nothing else matters. Pretty disgusting.
更重要的是，这就是他们所能提供的一切。他们显然是无能的，无法胜任任何组织工作，领导他们的是一个懒惰的骗子。他们所能做的就是让英国在各个方面变得更糟，除了让种族主义变得正常。这对很多英国人来说已经足够了。他们想要的生活就是成为种族主义者。其他的都不重要。很恶心。
