>> My sister and her other half, both doctors, both trained in Edinburgh, left soon after graduation to be virtuous in Africa, moved on to the Chatham Islands and for decades now have been established in New Zealand.
The flip-side of immigration: 2 medics, trained to the tune of around £250k each in today's money, then going abroad.
The flip-flip side is we absorbed a bunch of Asian doctors not trained at our expense especially in the 70s.
Currently I think it's going back to 'brain drain' status.
