From the Telegraph:
Up to 10,000 young doctors in the UK who are unable to find jobs in the NHS could be offered voluntary work overseas. According to official documents leaked yesterday, the plan was drawn up by NHS managers. Priority would be given to finding places for UK graduates and those from Europe.

And something sickening …
From the Guardian (London) today:
a mother and her three daughters who admitted cruelty relating offences against two toddlers escaped custodial sentence and walked free. They were each given a one-year suspended sentence and ordered to perform community service.
According to the report they forced two toddlers to take part in a "dog fight". “They formed a circle in the living room around the children, a three-year-old girl and a boy of two, and urged them to fight while capturing the whole episode on video.” The children's grandmother, a mother of eight, showed no remorse when she was interviewed, insisting it would "harden" them up, it was stated.
The video came to light after the children's father, a serving soldier, returned from Iraq and discovered the footage from the video camera the women used. The children's grandmother had told police that she saw nothing wrong with what they had done as it would "toughen them up".
