Moreover, what can the NHS do? Turn mothers that are about to pop out on the street?

What would Trump do, for the Mexican mothers that turn up for medical treament in the USA?

Some Tier 2 sponsor pay all applicants visa fees, some don't or pay part.

Re: students they need to pay the IHS too, £200 a year as do dependants.

Family members of EEA citizens in UK not working (ie studying) have to have CSI from wherever, BUPA, Aviva etc....

I looked up the charge for students as I did hear some student say he paid a hundred and something a few days ago not two hundred.

Anyway if you look on the links you provided it is £150 for students linky

That Tier 5, YMS, not student (Tier 4). T5 YMS is a work/holiday visa, formerly known as WHM, Working Holiday Maker Visa.

Yes I was talking about student visas (Tier 4 visas) where the IHS fee is £150.

Heavily pregnant women are not allowed to fly.

But it's in the Daily Mail so it must all be true

ok you work on a check in desk so you greet a woman with a noticeable belly and suggest she is pregnant she denies this do you

What exactly do you do?

These people are willing to lie to get free maternity service why would they tell the truth to the airline?

If the problem is really as big as reported (granted it is the Daily Mail), surely a requirement of health insurance covering pregnancy at the point of issuing visa should help with the cost. Couple that up with making airlines liable for some of the cost if they fail to turn away women if they are 32/33 weeks (whatever the guidelines are) pregnant.

It would not solve all potential cases, but will surely act as a deterrent.

I believe airlines have to offer free travel back to people if they have travelled on the wrong/fake visa. Add in pregnancy to that !

I'm all for insurance we need to change our rules as suggested above.

I don't see how airlines can do much if the pregnancy is not obvious. So long as their terms of carriage prohibit it they have done their job.

The Airlines do not issue Visas therefore they have no fault over respecting them.

This is a government issue.
