      I’ve been inundated with tweets calling me xenophobic and racist as a result of this @ofocBrexit tweet. But here’s why I think we should train our own young people to be doctors rather than import foreign doctors... thread.https://twitter.com/OFOCBrexit/status/1086947236192219136 …

      First there’s this... the only reason we don’t have enough British doctors to staff the NHS is because the Govt has for many years deliberately trained too few medical students. Why are we stopping young Brits from following their chosen careers?pic.twitter.com/MAVT31fzeP

      Then there’s this. Of course most doctors do a brilliant job - regardless of where they are born or trained. But the GMC does not accept all qualifications from every country for a reason. And they can still get it wrong, as these official figures from 2016 suggest.pic.twitter.com/5TgMIzB7I7

          And then there’s this. It is not xenophobia or racism to want to be abl to easily communicate with your doctor. This is a major concern for NHS patients with foreign doctors. This article is from 2016, *after* the tougher language tests were imposed.pic.twitter.com/8GNh5QZVKK

          And, finally, the issue of language barriers between patient and doctor has been raised by MPs on the Commons health select committee. Or are they all racists and xenophobes too? This article is from 2012.pic.twitter.com/NfXriTqZQr

          It should be possible to have a sensible debate in this country about issues like immigration, training and language without one side incessantly shouting “xenophobia” or “racist” at the other side. Sadly, that’s all some people have as their argument. That’s all. Enjoy your day.

          @juliahb1 that means that 130 British doctors got struck off? I think that’s top of the league. Well done. What an argument

          Still raises the point that 1 in 4 struck of doctors is British. Compared to 6 other nations

          It is not a morally superior position to argue that we should drain the highly trained talent of poor countries (leaving them bereft) because we can’t be arsed to train our own professionals.

          What's important here is that 20% of Doctors (not from the UK) are responsible for 72% of those "struck off"..

          Are you aware that the interview techniques for medical school have altered so that only touchy feely students get in? If you don't have a humanitarian mindset that you can prove in interview, took can get 3 A*'s, you're not going to get in ty o medical school.

          When I came to the UK from Romania to work as a doctor in 2002 I passed a language test as well as the PASTEST organised by the GMC. After 2007 a lot of doctors from Romania just got a job and came over. They had some command of English but knew nothing about the system.
