Immigrants HIV and the cost to the NHS

Sue Reid is right, health tourism, we are a soft option.

What riles me is that she says, 

The process is simple: Foreigners can get a unique and permanent NHS number, which they are then usually able to use to get free hospital care. They can also book an appointment online or just walk in without a doctor’s referral.

this makes my blood boil, how dare they, if only WE had a service as good as THAT, here in Lincolnshire.

Here we can't do any of that. Ring up, if you're lucky you could be one of the first 20 or so to get an appointment TODAY - (fair enough) but that's it, wait till tomorrow and try again. No walking in, no prebooking.

I've lived here 58 years and paid my NI TAX etc. why are WE the 2nd class citizens to Immigrants?
