EU nurse applicants drop by 96% since Brexit vote
I know it's an old post, but I'm sure I've read that this stat misleading as the spike and subsequent drop correlates with the introduction of the English language test.

My first reaction is that such a drop is unlikely as English is taught to a high standard. So, I googled it. Cos...well yeah facts gotta fact.
So it seems the drop MAY be linked to the language test, which is uni level English. I guess it's because nursing is now a uni level degree jobs in the UK, so it's only fair. But it's not an uni level job everywhere in the EU.
BUT I can't find hard figures, so how much of this is "hey you make me do a language test AND not pay super much AND your country isn't sure what to do with my rights" is impossible to quantify...
