Invalid Country

A month ago, 7 June, The Daily Telegraph reported (page 2): "Britain should set an example by reversing its steeply rising population growth and allowing no more people into the country than leave, the Government's chief 'green' adviser has said." This is none other than Jonathan Porritt, chairman of the Sustainable Development Commission.
Some hope.
Patricia Hewitt led the campaign to defeat the Conservative Party's 1979 election promise to end the concession whereby foreign men can live and work in the UK through marriage.
Then as Health Secretary she encouraged doctors from abroad to come and work in the UK. Subsequently she issued the guidance that these doctors should not be appointed to training posts.
The British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin challenged this, and: "By 'dashing the legitimate expectations' of doctors who had been encouraged to come to Britain, the law lords said, Ms Hewitt had acted unfairly." (The Times, 1 May 2008, page 15.)
As a result, "roughly 700 to 1,000 British-trained doctors" are "likely to be unable to get a training post in 2009, 2010 and beyond."
Who funded the appeal to the House of Lords?
The Indian doctors, who are displacing British-trained doctors, doubtless celebrated with their sponsors and, like them, will take up residence here.
Even a 'green' guru cannot prevent the UK's confrontational system of governance that is being exploited to the detriment of its native citizens.
