The NHS staffing crisis is expected to escalate as *thousands of doctors seek work overseas.

New figures show 4,700 have applied to the General Medical Council for certificates that let them practise abroad.

The Certificates of Good Standing allow doctors to register with another country’s regulatory body or employer.

It comes as hospitals are forced to send teams of managers abroad to recruit nurses to fill huge staffing gaps.

Labour will highlight the NHS “brain drain” at its conference in Manchester this week.
