the gov tried to ban the 10,000 for applying for the posts, mostly indians, but why should a doc who is here and doesn't have ILR be able to apply for training ? funded by the tax payer .. i agree they should if they've made a commitment to the uk and its their home and they have ILR. but for those who been a year or 2, i don't see why they should be allowed to apply while there are brit docs who need and want training..

well for those here they can, for those who are not, its the end of the road..
just remeber Auf Wiedersehen pet we all might need to soon find work in the EU or further abroad once the UK goes into recession. So tightening up restrctions to much may not be a good idea, otherwise it may make other countries respond in kind.
