Training for medical doctors?

After the medical institutions lost their case against training for medical doctors in UK. I personally think it’s wrong for British Taxes to be spent on foreign medical students in the UK. I think medical students should qualify in their countries and pass their exams, and became doctors before they apply for Jobs in the UK. I think British medical students should have priority in the courses and jobs in the UK. That way we will have more British doctors, and competition should only apply in medical jobs and not in training. What are your views on training for medical students? Should we allow foreign medical students for training in the UK?

1. Foreign students studying in British Universties have to pay for their course....the full amount and either are sponsored by their govenrments or by their family. Our health system would not have survived if it were not for the numerous foreign doctors studying here. The number of UK doctors is starting to increase so the demand for foreign students is reducing so this should make you happy.
