Too little, too late IMO, we have let far too many people from other EU states, who don't work and scrounge on our benefit system, settle here, straining our NHS healthcare to breaking point.
Absolute rubbish .The problems with the NHS are varied .I'm sure that immigrants play their part in overloading the NHS the same as they do with other services but so do our own non workers and our own elderly but the real reason is that we simply don't pay enough for it .Instead of having real wages so people can live and pay taxes to support themselves and the services we want we have pitiful wages where people work and receive benefits .
When people are as narrow minded as you are it's easy to keep blaming one section of society and avoiding the real issues .The only way the NHS will survive is if we actually pay for it and with a rising and aging population ,increased costs ,better technology and more advanced medicine in general the costs are only ever going to rise regardless of whether we are in Europe or not
