COMMENTS BY BLOGGER;

LONDON STREET VIOLENCE INCREASING WITH ACID AND KNIFE ATTACKS. SIMILAR TO ANARCHY IN 1962 BOOK AND LATER FILM BY LATE 'ANTHONY BURGESS' ; A CLOCK WORK ORANGE.

SAFEST IN LONDON TO AVOID WALKING AND PUBLIC TRANSPORT. TAKE TAXIS OR MINICABS.

LESS RISK TO STAY IN PRIVATE CLUBS SUCH AS ROYAL SOC MEDICINE., LANSDOWNE CLUB -WITH LARGE SWIMMING POOL. BOTH HAVE FIRST CLASS RESTAURANTS.

PROBLEM WITH LONDON; SENSATIONAL LUXURY WITH 6 PER CENT UNEMPLOYMENT. = APPROX 500,000 ON WELFARE.

SADLY SAFER TO AVOID MAIN TOURIST ATTRACTIONS IN VIEW OF TERRORIST CAR ATTACKS. SO FAR MAIN MUSEA AND GALLERIES HAVE NOT SUFFERED ATTACKS.

DAILY MAIL; AFTER 69 YEARS NHS HOSPITALS TO VERIFY RESIDENCE IN UK OF PATIENTS :TWO ITEMS OF IDENTIFICATION REQUIRED..

2017-10-21T11:07:00.003-04:00

FOR 69 YEARS UK HOSPITALS HAVE NOT BOTHERED TO CHECK RESIDENCE OF PATIENTS. NOW WILL CHARGE FOR MEDICAL SERVICES TO NON UK RESIDENT PATIENTS. SOME LEFTY REACTION BY 'DOCS NOT COPS'. IN PAST WAS COMMON FOR EUROPEANS TO TRAVEL TO UK FOR BIRTHS AND OTHER MEDICAL SERVICES. NAIVELY THE MENTION OF A LOCAL ADDRESS WAS ENOUGH. AS NHS DOCTORS PAID BY TIME THERE WAS NO EFFORT TO STOP THIS ILLEGAL PRACTICE. NOW WITH NHS IN FINANCIAL TROUBLE THIS WASTE OF TAXPAYERS' MONEY HAS TO STOP.

EU HEALTH CARD HOLDERS WILL STILL BE COVERED FOR EMERGENCY (UNPLANNED) TREATMENT. ONLY.
