Our health service does not refuse to treat people who turn up in urgent need of treatment. To do so would be unethical. Even illegal immigrants/failed asylum seekers can get treatment.
In any case, you have to count among those 'allowed to stay', those who have not yet been told to leave. Those with permission to stay, plus those not yet told to leave, represent a rather larger number than you are suggesting.

By the way, you've still not addressed the other point I made. Asylum and immigration is only an issue at this election because of the complete c0ck-up Labour has made of it over the last eight years.
