So anyone who wants to get on the boat just becomes a "Teacher". It is really easy to get forged credentials in some countries and in parts of the world this is a way of life.

Teachers is just the thin end. The decrepit health service cannot function without all the ‘foreign’ staff. They should remove all foreigners just to prove to the idiots how vital they are. I’m sure you’ll welcome through the fella from the Motherland when he comes with the suitcase full of vaccines for you.
