I can't think of any reason for someone to object to this.

Hi Nems, apparently you were poorly so I hope you've convalesced.

It's simply a gimmick to fire you far right folk up, so that you may caste your indignation with relish.

I would remove the citizenship of those who have stashed their stolen taxes and various incognito items of swag in an off shore tax haven, and use the £120BN - £1.5TRILLION to bring the NHS back up to scratch, you and your ilk can quote the lies and propaganda of the Hitler loving press, but try and put some perspective back in your life, please!

Hi Scrat

I am sure that certain members are only on here with one agenda just to slag off someone, it is really boring and should stop

It is getting worse.

It grieve me when I read a poor soul who has genuine entitlement to our NHS is refused treatment yet those from across the sea can get it FREE.

Well then presumably you wont need treatment abroad.

And treatment should not be provided without proof of entitlement...

biometric ID cards for instance...

Is this thread not about treatment here?

Tommy Monk wrote:

This proposal is not for emergency A&E care.


And anyone else would obviously need to have their claimed identity checked against other systems of verification.

Yes, I was just pointing out that Brits have to show their passports abroad so why not have a system here where everyone has to prove their entitlement to free NHS service.
If you really don't have a passport, I'm sure that consideration would be addressed if this rule ever came in.
I presume you do have some official proof you are not an illegal alien.

I really do not have passport (it's lapsed) - and other forms of ID are easily obtained by illegals as discussed earlier.

Well then we will have to step up security to out the little buggers wont we Ziz?

Fill your boots.

This is more about all the non UK citizens turning up to try to use our NHS that they are not entitled to be using.

I wondered why you were repeating previous points.

Not my boots Ziz, I do have a passport and all relevant documents to prove I'm entitled.

Security should be stepped up if you believe anyone can so easily fool the NHS (and so presumably other British organisations too) I think we would all agree to that.

I know....but I do tend to answer points as I read through rather than wait till the end.

If illegals can easily find ways round the system then so can legals.

Erm, no.  Anyone who is ordinarily resident or granted leave to remain in this country is entitled to free NHS treatment regardless of their nationality.
