STOP blaming foreigners for this country’s issues.
Health tourism isn’t what’s causing problems with our NHS, and I’d ask last week’s letter writer, do you even know what a “health tourist” is?
British nationals are also health tourists. Should we adopt the pay before treatment option? If you research the facts about Jonny (Foreigner) using our NHS, that’s the only cost-effective way to recoup the costs, and it’s a drop in the ocean compared to total NHS spending.
Sweeping statements about Jonny taking ‘our’ NHS and benefits is at the heart what’s going wrong in this country, headline-grabbing comments slowly normalising xenophobia and racism.
