ME AND THE NHS.

I am obviously very fortunate when it comes to medical attention. About two months ago, a small growth on my forehead started to weep a little blood. I called in at my Doctor's surgery, pointed out that it could be a carcinoma, this was confirmed by the Doctor later on the same day, and to cut the story short, today I had the stitches removed.

However, let us not get carried away by all this. As I pointed out to one of the nurses in attendance at the operation, these things should be good, based on the mountains of cash spent in the system. The Doctor/Surgeon who removed the affliction, a Malaysian, was very interested in the fact that I have a radio programme, and write two political blogs. She enquired about my observations on our benefit system. In response, I pointed out that there are always some who need to be looked after, but we're going to run out of patience soon, regarding the cost of paying benefits to immigrants, along with child tax credits. My question to her was simply; would her Government be paying me money and giving me free health care should I ever be in need in her country? She confirmed that there wouldn't be a hope in hell.


WELL DONE THE NHS.
