Just a few seconds from me, but as a fairly broad take on everything happening around sentiment towards migrants, the doc fits in a decent amount of interviewees and context
The Conor McGregor 4 President part overdone but well worth a listen to this look-back @BBCRadio4 to Dublin riot and context around immigration to Ireland, featuring contributions from @Hazelchu @BiddyEarly @kevcunningham and others bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001vs…

Devastating and thoughtful @BBCRadio4 File on 4 about public sector interpretation. No surprises though for those of us who care about interpretation in healthcare. No or (linguistically or contextually) inappropriate interpretation leads to obstetric violence, (1)

Looking forward to listening to this programme on BBC Radio 4 tomorrow on public service interpreting in the UK bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001sm8… #1nt

8pm tonight. Programme will mostly focus on public service interpreters in the NHS (who are paid even less than court interpreters) whose shortage leads to avoidable deaths of foreign patients. Why shortage? Pay so poor it's unsustainable. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001sm8…
Surya Elango retweeted
"When people who don't speak English, they are entitled to receive the support of #interpreters when dealing with public sector organisations.
The service provides a lifeline for some of society's most vulnerable people to help them navigate places like hospitals, social services and courts.
But BBC reporter Matthew Hill hears allegations the service is seriously failing those who need it most - with tragic consequences."
