The Brexit Thread

[Gandalf]

I had to pay for the extortionate fucking TV/phone in hospital too (I didn't haven't an internet-phone device at the time). Cost me hundreds for FIVE terrestrial channels (I would have jumped to death from my ward but didn't have the ability to climb out the window).

If you had only had 3 or mouthfuls of vitamins and a cup of Ginseng Tea instead of actual food for breakfast you would not have cost the NHS so much by being in there, you selfish bastard.

Miles would have fainted if he witnessed the sheer waste with the absolute piss-take (people using the hospital as a hotel / health tourists), special privileges people can demand depending on what they believe and amount of druggies, drunks and raving lunatics permanently living there. And that was just the adult diabetes ward.

I was watching that Theroux doc about people drinking themselves to death and that was an eye opener too. When I used an ambulance one time because I collapsed having done too much too soon I had to pay for the ambulance and all the treatment and it is not as though my national contributions are any less than what they would be in the UK. Everything still costs thus any visit to a doctor or extra treatment costs money even though you pay national insurance. It's not about becoming American like Beanz thinks but people are far more messy today thus budening the system. Seems very wasteful. Until you are willing to help yourself then nobody can really help you.
