We did not need to use our holiday insurance as we had our EU medical cards.
It took 3 1/2 hours at A&E in Blackburn tonight to see if the lad had broken his wrist. After all that time they were not sure and said a radiographer will look at it during the week.
Oh yes we have a superb system at the moment

And so will those in Europe using the service here. Its those from outside the EU that should be charged

Now come on you are in breach of the untold rules on here laid down by Garinda and his slobbering dog Jaysay..most people know that health care is given in any country within the EU.( unless you live in the same bubble as the above mentioned). the myth that we British pay for everything in Europe and get nothing is rubbish.
I'm not pro -EU but do at least look and the in's and out of the UK being a member... maybe we should leave the union, but to involve our fantastic NHS in a debate about the EU is pathetic.

If you're German, you may have contributed enough taxes, which are paid into the E.U. pot.
If you've come here from somewhere like Romania, you won't have.

Might be of interest, to anyone who doesn't live in their own little bubble, or who wears one party political blinkers, which blinds them to what the rest of us see in reality.

Oh trust me I don't.
I'm just happy he's safe from harm, in his secured ward in Bedlam.

Oh I'm fully self-sufficent, in that department.
No need for anyone else.
Totally free.
Which is probably why I've never been a member of any political party.
Blinds you to reality.
Must be very restrictive.
Being a true blue, or red.
Though even worse, would be having to brown-nose whoever was in power.
That must be a very challenging skill, to pull of successfully, especially when who has that power changes.
A little like whoring.
No, I think I'll stay free from all binding ties, unencumbered by loyalty to anyone, and therefore freed to speak my own mind.

Di-dums.
Aren't you allowed pets, in your secured ward?
That's a shame.
Can't remember you being such a bitter li'l babba, when I've been super critical of the Tories in the past, on here.
I'll just carry on regardless.
Being super critical, of the jumbled, centralist mess, that is both New Labour, and the Tory Lites.
Perhaps if you save a few crumbs, you could try and tame a little birdie.
Then you wouldn't feel so isolated.
Tweet, tweet.

Not even original, according to mags he's my pet poodle, I don't remember reporting him missing on here, but if ownership has been transferred, I hope no-one has removed his only remaining assets without my permission just to get him re-homed!

Fancy Mancie - Class Warrior.
Sadly, for him, it's the nursery class.
