EU ban the UK from checking immigranta doctors & nurses are qualified for the job

Now the EU has banned the UK from checking immigrant doctors & nurses are actually qualified to do the job & they will have the right to work in the UK without having to be checked they are qualified, are truthful on their applications or if they have previously been suspended etc

Surely this is a danger to patients?

Surely this is more Daily Mail bull?

Your interpretation of the dailymail article suggests a problem. However, the dailymail is a propaganda mouthpiece which misrepresents and outright lies on a regular basis, so you need to find another source if you want a serious discussion on the issue.
This would be a serious problem if it was true. Which I doubt.
Don't trust the Daily Mail, it's a right-wing influenced 'newspaper'.
OP are you getting paid by the daily mail for spreading their propoganda?
It will simply make them eligible to apply to the positions. It does not stop the individual hospitals from doing their own checks.

Usually I don't mind the DM as long as they provide enough citations, this one has none, not only that but it doesn't even say which EU rules are at fault, it simply says "EU laws" as if that is enough to go on. Though English problems among NHS doctors is definitely an issue.

Aww, your feelings seem to have been hurt. Is it because the dailymail is your primary source for everything on this forum? Unfortunately for you, the guardian is a more reliable source. A source doesn't have to either be the dailymail or the guardian, though.
