Britain plunders African Medics. As a result, African children die.


Britain continues to cause havoc in Africa, by stealing many of their trained medics. Medics trained in Africa, with African money were supposed to help African children. Instead, they are being poached by Britain, leaving the African children to die.

In Africa, there are 3 doctors per 100,000 people. In the West there are 230.
Why then, should we steal their medics? The staffing crisis in Africa, is leaving hospitals empty of doctors.
It costs £200,000 to train a consultant, it is a very wicked practice, where impoverished African countries are paying to train medics who will practise in the West. The African medics, who get paid peanuts in their own countries are lured to the West by high wages. This leaves the children in Africa, who desperately needed them to die. Needless to say, the NF would immediately stop this practice, and repatriate ALL African doctors and nurses, to stop this holocaust in Africa.

* Africa suffers a shortage of approximately 1.5 million health workers;
some estimates are higher
* African countries lose 20,000 skilled health workers per year, with up to 60% of doctors trained in some countries migrating within two years of graduation.
* Africa suffers 25% of the global burden of disease but only has 3% of the global medics.

Many African lives would be saved, if they had the medics. But, under the present capitalist system, Britain sucks out their doctors, tempting them with higher pay.

Dr. Agyeman Akosa, the director general of Ghana'shealth service, states that his country's public health system was virtually collapsing because it was losing not just many of its doctors, but its best ones.

"I have at least nine hospitals that have no doctor at all, and 20 hospitals with only one doctor looking after a whole district of 80,000 to 120,000 people," Dr. Akosa said. Women in obstructed labour all too often suffer terrible complications or death for lack of an obstetrician, he said. Have you ever watched a young mother die because no medical help was available to deliver her baby?. That is the situation is many parts of Africa.

Britain has (well used to have), world class hospitals and doctors. Its a damned cheek, that we should now refuse to train enough of our own, and rely on stealing doctors from the Third world.

The answer is of course, that Britain trains enough of our own doctors, thus not creating a vacuum. Secondly we must refuse entry to ANY medics from Africa. Also, repatriate African doctors currently working in the UK.

We call politicians stupid, when they refuse to train enough medics for Britain. But, I think we are being too kind. Its nothing short of deliberate genocide, to leave Africa without enough doctors. We cant hear the suffering of those children in Africa, neither will we know the Anguish of their parents. We cant count their graves. Most don't even know of their loss.

But know this, for every talented Native Briton which is turned away from a medical training school, and an African medic imported instead, many wooden crosses like this will be erected in Africa.

The National Front. is a friend to Africa. and will try to ensure proper health care in Africa. Besides returning the medics that we looted from Africa, financial aid will be given to stop the present holocaust. Africa can expect an influx of skilled African workers from the UK, when the National Front is elected.

Training enough medics for British needs, will be the top priority of a Nationalist government. Native Britons will be trained to do this. A vast expansion of medical training schools will take place. British people dying from preventable diseases, hospital waiting lists, unhygienic wards and killer diseases in hospitals will just be a memory from the past. A relic from the era of Labour, and Conservative governments.


Nationalism saves lives.
