The rights of political prisoners are universal, beyond Geography Government or political affiliation. Be it in India ,Pakistan or anywhere in the world, those incarcerated must be treated with dignity and humanity, with access to proper medical care, family and legal counsel, and due process.

Court orders must be respected and rule of law upheld. Political differences can never justify denying a prisoner his or her fundamental rights.

I’m a Canadian citizen and have been a Liberal supporter. I want to know why the Liberal Party @liberal_party and @AnitaAnandMP are engaging with Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar while his regime is actively involved in the transnational repression of Canadian citizens. Is @AnitaAnandMP out of her mind?

Here is a list of Canadian citizens apart from me who have been threatened personally, or whose families have been harassed, abducted, or tortured by the very regime Ishaq Dar represents. @AnitaAnandMP can easily verify these details directly with the RCMP:
Adeel Habib @AdeelHabib_
Haider Mehdi @SHaiderRMehdi
Hamza Ahmad Khan (Kidnapped by Pakistani authorities in Pakistan)
Ali Mustafa

@drhajrabajwa yep that’s why I choose GP-land

[Abraham Khan @Khan6102]

As usual Virgin broadband not working again for 4 hours now . This is ridiculous. It’s happening everyday now. Locking us in a 24 month contract with almost daily outage do yoh want us to beg for some stability now ??

[Abraham Khan @Khan6102]

@virginmedia We’ve been locked into a 24-month contract, yet our broadband has been going offline almost every day for the past few weeks. It’s unfair to expect us to pay cancellation fees when the service we’re paying for doesn’t even work. Fix it or let us leave the contract !!

@Xeon4f145d96s1 ‘Top IMG candidates are starting to get the bottom barrel posts so let’s stop the xenophobia calls’

See how silly that sounds?

[Person @konsiquenz]

This is why I was saying this goes beyond remaining in the BMA. The government itself is at the forefront of all anti-IMG rhetoric in and outside the health sector.

[Dr Mohit Bhagia @DrMohitBhagia]

New lows achieved every single day in this anti-IMG tirade.

For shame @wesstreeting, you are contributing to and propagating institutional xenophobia which has existed for quite some time and has since been acknowledged too:

[The Truth @The_truthhh10]

@wesstreeting Imagine a health secretary approving a xenophobic message directed towards about half of the doctors providing care in his country.

"We defunded the NHS, cut doc jobs that exploded wait lists AND training 'bottlenecks' because they were the only jobs left"

"We 'Restored Fairness' by ending the careers of every single Doc who hadn't shelled out £10000s at UK Unis, banned them from training foreva!"

Woohoo!

[Agni Kai @ElAmeeann]

UK Grad with a rank of 2209 is getting an IMT offer but an IMG that's ranked 45 didn't get an offer. Shame on the BMA and everyone involved in this mediocrity called prioritisation.

[Mohamed Khaled 🇵🇸 @Mohamedkhaled_Z]

There's an IMG I know who ranked 4th in Radiology.

FOURTH!!

After UKGP is being applied mid-cycle, there's an extremely high chance not to get ANY training post. As a UKG who ranked 600 must be offered the post first and refuse it for the IMG to get it.

LOL.

[Sai Ishaya @Sai_Ishaya_]

It seems that you even want your tiredness of the “rhetoric” to be prioritised above the actual experience of IMGs telling you that much of the discourse around prioritisation has crossed into racism and xenophobia.

Let’s be clear: No one is saying "supporting prioritization = automatic racism." That’s a strawman. What people are saying is that the language used to shift the blame onto IMGs frequently crosses the line into xenophobia/racism.

If you don’t think it’s toxic, ask your IMG colleagues how they feel scrolling through medical forums on Reddit. The few who haven’t left have to start every post with a disclaimer: "I support UKGrad Prioritization" just to avoid being piled on. Like a "loyalty test" just to ask a basic clinical or career question.

You cannot claim to care about "collegiality" while dismissing the experiences of the very IMGs on the receiving end of this rhetoric. By ignoring the toxicity, you aren't staying "neutral", you are enabling it to go unchecked.

Structural workforce issues are real. The need to protect UK grads is real. But using those facts as a shield to ignore blatant "othering" and "dehumanization" of international colleagues is a failure of leadership and empathy.

We need to stop prioritizing the "tiredness" of the people starting the fire over the actual burns of the people in it.

[Dr Elizabeth ‘Kandi ✨ @DrETKandi]

Question: does the #BMAHateIMGs aptly describe the ongoing crisis where medical doctors (behind faceless accounts) are openly being racist towards IMGs and the BMA has remained silent?

[Former Nigerian @former_naija]

This thread is what I’ve been trying to say. This prioritisation could have been done with a lot more common sense and empathy. Also, seeing doctor colleagues echo Reform-like talking points is beyond shameful.
Thanks to Dr Kneale for putting words to my sentiments

[Dr Elizabeth ‘Kandi ✨ @DrETKandi]

And as a system that relies heavily upon colleague feedback for career progression, this growing divide is dangerous.

More and more IMGs feel unsafe at work as a result of the divisive state of @TheBMA - is that something this organization stands for? Does the #BMAHateIMGs ?

@jsadenikinju Earnings are also closer to £70k than £60k. Working as a doctor in the UK for 5 years earning that, is not slavery.
