Re: Valuable comments
Problem being is that everyone feels 'entitled' to free care. "I've paid my taxes" etc etc so there's no incentive to take any action till its too late.
If people had to pay towards for preventable illness. Alcohol/smoking/obesity related diseases would the NHS be so stretched?
Should private health insurance be tax deductible rather than a taxable benefit if work provides it or you pay for it yourself.
So called health tourists could be clamped down on. I wouldn't dream going to America without insurance but no EU visitors can happily come here for all sorts.
