I have read that 10s of thousands of Ex Pats are likely to come back to the UK if their free health care in the country they are living in is stopped when we leave the EU. That would put even more strain on the bed situation in the NHS. I did not realise they got free health care. Perhaps Dave in Germany will know. Another way to save the NHS money would be to stop the practice of not taking back walking aids after folk have had for example knee or hip surgery and no longer need them. The same goes for unused dressings etc that have not been touched. It does seem a terrible waste.
