No problems getting new doctors (of a sort) there are hundreds of Indian and Pakistani people who have learned how to put a plaster on a cut and have therefore been given a certificate in their country to say they are medically qualified and use said certificate to support their job application for a doctor post here in the UK.
Same as football, you could be born in timbuktu but if you have ever had a sip of guinness then you qualify to play for Eire.
I don't think its Borderline racism, its just pure racism, what your saying is that if you are a doctor or nurse in the UK and happen to be from somewhere other than the uk, then you must have got your medical certificates by unfair means, or by lying and cheating your way to achieving them, what a complete insult to all the medical workers in the uk coming from abroad to work and enhance the NHS, your post has no proof or substance, its just your biased opinion, and as for your sip of guinness nonsense, well every player (bar one) which was only discovered many years later, was legally entitled to represent the REPUBLIC OF IRELAND, they have not been called Eire in a long time, yes they did use the grandparent rule to its maximum, but thats because there were a few clever knowledgable people working at the FAI at the time who knew how to get benefit from the system, and England, Scotland, Wales and N-Ireland also used the grandparent rule, plenty of players represented all 5 countries that were not born there, but their parents or grand parents were, I was a fan of that rule myself, served us well, I know a few workers in the NHS that happen to come from outside the uk and I am happy in the knowledge that they worked hard to get to where they have done, I'll put mine and any of my familys lives in their hands in a heartbeat, no place on this forum for racism, or indeed society for that matter, no place for any of the so called isms, Racism, homo phobiaism, Sexism, Ageism and one that we were quite familar with over here Sectarianism, I have complete and utter contempt for all of them.
