Jessy – so you intended to insult or take the mickey about me ‘being foreign’? Mind if I decide to take it personally? I am not sure why it should upset you so – the way anyone writes on a forum or in real life has snob value if you are going to discount it just because your preconceived ideas show a person has no value if they cant read or write to degree level, or in the way you subjectively choose. There are different styles of writing which can be applied to different situations, and a forum is open to any a person chooses. If your argument finds the subject of foreigners – then I am unsure what you mean by a foreigner. If you wish to divert the argument to the thousands of holiday tourists who arrive here for care on the National Health and depart without paying then the only thing I can contribute to this is the Man who presented himself at A&E when we were there once. He had a bullet in his leg which had been there for several months – whilst he travelled across the world to this Country to claim asylum (so the story was being told at the reception desk was going). We next saw him a few weeks later with the leg amputated. I imagine that your travel to hospital arrangements might be fulfilled as a number of these holiday tourists will probably not go out buy and Tax a car before travelling to the hospital, but instead dial 999. I can also contribute the story I read of the hundreds of women who present themselves to London hospitals in labour, with no links to this Country and apparently no way of funding their hospital care, so the NHS picks up the tab. Probably better if you want to divert onto these sorts of areas, Jessie, to start another thread rather than pinch Ina’s. As Jean Caroline and Lynn have already said what a good debate it is and a touching local issue - even if it means you aren’t getting your own way. Have a nice day. |
