Can't blame doctors for walking. Doctors are no different from us mere mortals in that they can be effected by change they don't like, don't agree with or just plain sick of politicians getting involved with stuff they know little or nothing about.
They're basically apprentices, that's what govt funded apprentices have always done: Leave for better pay.
