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 …

The glorious Diana Abbot experienced the same thing on QT last week. Once again she came across as think as two planks and then immediately, then next day played the racism card. No love, it was because she was as thick as two planks. Fair play to her thou, she’s consistent!!

She might have come across as eleventy six short planks, but Fiona Bruce was categorically wrong in her biased assertions which were used to attack a Black MP...

Nope. But all people should be immune from a biased chair. The fact there’s a history of attacking her doesn’t help, does it?

Fiona Bruce was definitively and demonstrably biased. I have no love for Labour but I do love a fair and equal playing field in debates...

Before that, twice, you say “we didn’t train enough of ‘our own’ doctors” - you set the context to be about “our own” before talking about who trains them.

I’d take “our own” as this nation. This nation has the education standard to do so, also students wanting to do the job. Why the desire to pull doctors/nurses from poorer nations is beyond me.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-26262064 …

My 87 year old mum is now permanently bedbound because British trained nursing staff failed to stop pressure sores developing on her ankles. Not sure where they are trained has any bearing on this. Language ability certainly does though.

Nothing wrong with wanting a British born doctor either. Constantly stepping on eggshells.
