They would do so because of their frustrations about the UKGrad prioritisation bill.

You dont need to do anything you are right. But the reason I have asked that question is because theres clearly a few things you probably haven't as you feel my stance with what ive said can not exist: 'I don't understand how you keep saying this given your stance on UKGrad prioritization & IMGs in the UK. How exactly do you expect the US to absorb this influx of UK Grads? You don't think it will increase competition ratios? What specialities do you think will absorb them given the fill rates?' so I thought the very best way to get to the crux of the difference is to get an insight from you of where you think I really stand and believe. Thought it was the most sensible way to actually have a conversation and understand any gaps to be honest. Maybe I am wrong

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.

They know this. They dread this kind of career stagnation. They used it as an argument for why UKGrad Prioritization was an emergency(when last has anyone talked about FPR 😅). Now the same thing they understood as stagnation, they are in disbelief that IMGs are not taking to the streets to celebrate being "gifted" such an opportunity.

- creating and pushing through the 1st policy on UKgrad prioritisation against int. & ext pushback - negotiating sweeping ER reforms with fines. - the DV driving force for the largest pay uplift on the way to FPR - changing the infantilising ‘junior’ to ‘resident’ (2/3)

UKgrad drs should get preference in spec training but it’s proliferation of ill-equipped staff being used in roles where they do not have the required depth of knowledge including ‘nurse consultants’ in medical consultant rotas, is dangerous &reducing standards in U.K. healthcare

(3/3)having gone through the process, I think that ukgrad are fav already, and I feel that someone which collects the application points through the system that is in place now should not be disadvantaged just because they went to uni somewhere else.

Congratulations Evan Elise!! Three up, three down…7th inning stretch!!#UKgrad ⁦@universityofky⁩
