Creeky........as my son is a Doctor, I'm only too well aware; that were it not for ethnic minorities working in the NHS, we'd be in an even worse situation.  However, we STILL don't have anywhere near enough doctors or Nurses and as an example.........if by employing 1 Indian Doctor, another 10 Indians ( who didn't work in the NHS ) came into the country; it would be counter productive.  As it would seem that free movement of workers within the EU, means that we can't cherry pick ; then we will obviously get more people who DON'T work in the NHS, than DO work in the NHS..........and the burden on the NHS WILL increase.

I still don't understand how countries like Romania, Hungary, Poland etc. etc. can function, when all their Doctors and Nurses prefer to come and work here.........they don't care one iota about there own countries, who need them even more................although with half their populations following them to various other countries.......maybe they don't.
