Will they get the job done

And yet the NHS will treat anyone who walks off a plane right this second.

You try the same thing in America or elsewhere.


When I had a motorbike accident in Belgium I had to pay £100 for the ambulance, the hospital gave me a cast for my leg and I then had to pay for recovery, about 20 year ago.

Nice treatment though.

The only reason I have heard cited was by a NHS chief who said hospitals don't have time to play immigration officer as well. Of course they are strapped for cash and will drag their heels to do anything that might cost them money.

I believe the UK government was paying foreign countries several billion per year for healthcare for UK nationals abroad but the NHS was very slow in doing the reverse, not many million was claimed back. I suppose places like Greece etc do you expect them to pay?

Yes. Even the smallest country has more money that you and I do. Greece has the 55th largest economy in the world, last time I looked, and had more income than Bill Gates.

It doesn't cost much to raise an invoice. Considering what care costs ,you could employ someone to do the billing and make money.
They might be off their face when being admitted but there not released in that state.
The rest of the EU pay each other, pathetic excuse.

Now we will start to reap the benefits and the £400 billion that being in the EU has cost us will come back within a couple of years .

(That’s £200 billion in net contributions over 47 years and £200 billion in Brexit costs by the end of 2020).
