Todays Telegraph highlights the insane system, imposed by the EU, which means that there is virtually no testing on foreign doctors competence, and under which the sharing of information about malpractice is often blocked.
Chairman of the British Medical Association, Dr Hamish Meldrum, told a Cardiff meeting of the BMA that "We are aware of several cases where doctors have been removed from the medical register in this country because of fitness to practice problems, but are still practicing elsewhere in the EU. I am afraid EU law seems to put freedom of movement rather higher than protection of patients".
Doctor John Fitton says "It should be unacceptable that a doctor who is found to be incompetent or untrustworthy in one jurisdiction of the country might equally be able to find employers in another".
Under the current madness doctors such as Daniel Ubani, who qualified in Germany, killed a patient in the UK with a huge painkiller overdose, but who can still practice in German. The General Medical Council could not verify whether he had ever practiced in Germany, and until the time of his administering a fatal overdose to patient David Gray, his license automatically allowed him to practice in the UK.
