‘Frightened to get out of their cars’: Britain’s toxic race debates threaten overseas care workers

The article discusses the increasing incidents of racist abuse faced by overseas care workers in the UK. It highlights that care staff, who have travelled to the country to support vulnerable individuals, are now being advised to travel in mixed groups and carry panic alarms due to a surge in reports of "verbal abuse and spitting" from strangers.
