India has a lot of highly skilled labour, they get a pittance for it over there, with our minimum wage they would get a lot more for doing the same job, at the same time, they fill vacancies we need filled and don't have the staff.

Doing the same job here they have the same costs of living as people living here. I don’t see how this is any different from driving down the wages of British people by importing cheap labour instead of allowing market forces to drive wages up.

Let's not forget if we recruit migrant nurses and doctors from India or elsewhere they will no doubt do an excellent job in a sector which is grossly understaffed, solves plenty of issues there.

I fail to see the benefit over upskilling our own workforce.
