Smash the gangs ? Another lie.

Over 1,600 new criminals have invaded the UK in the last 7 days. Via small boats across the channel. Although at an average of 70 per boat I’d hardly say they were ‘small’ boats.

They will all need somewhere to live, feeding, watering, health care, dentistry, transport, spending money, mobile phones and the services of some young local girls (actual age irrelevant) to meet their needs.

And the summer has only just begun.

Thank you Sir Keir and the Labour party for sorting out this most urgent and important problem.

Wonder what the next liar’s slogan will be.

Freedom of movement perhaps ?

The good news is that despite many failings in the NHS, help is still available for you. :emoticon-0103-cool:

Good Lord no !

Strictly private health care for me. Can’t be doing with the awful waiting lists and unintelligible staff in the NHS. And those waiting rooms full of illegal immigrants, drunks and druggies. No thanks.

No worries. Nigel is going to abolish the NHS.
All the British people who will have to wait to die at home because they don't have £500 loose change just to see a GP, will no doubt be grateful that at least there are no freeloading foreigners filling up the plush private waiting rooms.

This by the way is what the BMA wants.
They never liked the NHS, and they cannot wait to go back to the good old days, seeing well heeled patients in Harley Street while the great unwashed just do without.

Good for you, I was put on the waiting list for eye surgery on April 21st, surgery takes place next month, hardly awful. As for the staff, I do something highly novel, listen to them.
Careful not to have an accident, if you do best tell the ambulance staff you're a private patient, I'm sure they'll find you a private a&e department. :emoticon-0138-think

Have you been in any A&E’s lately ?

Over 100 people waiting on each of my last two visits, when in the past there would be maybe 20/30.

They’re like a war zone and most of those waiting are not even speaking English.

The NHS is broken and was never designed to cater for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people, who don’t and have never paid a penny into it.
 
The NHS is a brilliant institution, but needs extra funding. One of the sacred cows is the-free-at the-point-of -delivery. A small charge for initial doctor's appointments might address this. The money has to come from somewhere.

That's why it has to be abolished.
Nobody will mind. At least nobody worth mentioning.
 
The NHS was a brilliant institution, but needs less freeloaders sucking it dry. One of the sacred cows is the-free-at the-point-of -delivery. A small charge for initial doctor's appointments might address this as well as proof that you are entitled to use it. The money has to come from English speaking mugs who have paid into it for decades.
Suitably amended.

If we had ten million fewer people, the NHS would work perfectly. And there would be no need for additional funding.

Apply this to schools, prisons, housing and the welfare state and you'd have a country running at its optimum level.

There are simply too many people for the existing infrastructure.

Why on earth should a foreigner come over and get seen by the NHS? Buy an insurance policy like the rest of us when we go abroad. I couldn't just swan over to the States and get my piles seen to for gratis.

Once again, we are utter mugs.

You say listen to them, I would have thought it would be easier to give them your phone and do audio google translate <whistle>

Sadly, I must concur.

Late 2022 I took myself over to the PRU in Orpington as I was a bit concerned with my ticker as feeling (unusually)a bit under the weather. I was treated VERY well BUT it must have taken 8 hours before a bed was found for me as an overnight precuation given my medical history with the heart.

Whilst waiting around the boat people were out in force thinking they were in a youth club. There was one guy who was/had been bleeding and he had to sit down and wait his turn.

Whatever the staff get paid, it is not enough.

It’s hard finding a bed for a vertically challenged person <whistle>

Although according to some, having 10 million extra foreigners poncing off the country makes no difference to housing shortages, NHS waiting lists, crime, prison over-crowding, excessive school classroom numbers, jam-packed roads etc etc etc <whistle><doh>

More wild exaggeration.
Are there 10 million asylum seekers not granted leave to remain?
Only applicants not processed yet or those refused asylum are not allowed to work.
That's a few hundred thousand I ahould think.
Not 10 million.

The majority of that 10 million are here legally, and millions of them will be earning money and paying taxes.
Many of them likely working in the NHS and care sectors, doing jobs every day that would make you or me puke.

But hey, why not just lump them all together and say they are poncing off the Country.

PS:

This thread has been taken over by an invasion of fighting age migration related posts.
I'll deport them all to the the migrant crisis thread a bit later.
This toxic subject will not be allowed to pollute the rest of Not606 Charlton on my watch.

EDIT:

Posts moved.
The whole conversation has been moved here, as it would not be readable were some of the posts not directly referring to migrants been left where they were.
