Free Healthcare

with the NHS (UK only)

actually you pay for it through taxes, does that still count as free?

Most doctors now in the uk you have to book an appoinment to see them, so how do you predict when your going to be ill. :unsure:

Not where I am, you phone in the morning then go down to t'surgery.

Health is a devolved issue, I don't know if that makes a difference.

Perhaps when it's a life or death thing a visit to A & E may be a good idea.

Or a call to the local on-call quack for a home visit.

We are not all living in the 'Spam Belt' of Scotland JP. Where I live someone on the telephone is trying to do an appendectomy on you even if you are just phoning in to get a GP appointment for the wife.
