• Lord Mann has recommended a ban on political badges worn by NHS staff at work.
• The review found some Jewish patients were reluctant to use NHS services due to concerns about their treatment.
• The government has accepted recommendations for new national guidance on NHS uniforms.

NHS staff should not wear political badges while at work, according to the government's independent adviser on antisemitism, who has warned that some Jewish staff and patients feel increasingly uncomfortable within parts of the health service.

The recommendation forms part of a wider NHS antisemitism review commissioned by the government last year. The report, due to be presented to Parliament, examines allegations of discrimination within the NHS and proposes new measures aimed at improving confidence among both staff and patients.
