Reply to: Should the state let Michael Buerk die to save the NHS money?

Source? Or are Mods exempt from such tedium?

Edit: Surely nobody is that stupid?

Edit 2: It seems someone is that stupid . Although you attribute a quote from a Brexit Party supporter to the Party themselves. That is ever so slightly disingenuous, don't you think?

Replying to your Edit 2: The person in question is the founder of The Brexit Party and since being pulled up for the lack of facts in her post has left it out there, along with others that are short on fact.
Is it disingenuous to post a lie, be told it is a lie and leave it out there as a lie? Is that more or less disingenuous than saying the founder of a party is posting something that is linked to that party?

‘Major operations are sold in Pakistan and performed by the NHS in London. Patients arrive at Heathrow and are collected and taken to Slough General. Everyone is on the take abusing the system.’

Slough General. You need to know your hospitals before you start making them up!

You've still got Nan...

No, I think we had her for Christmas dinner several years ago.

I’m not saying we refuse healthcare to those who are overweight, I’m still proposing that we eat old people.

You've still got Nando's...

I visited there a few years ago. I think Ozzy Osbourne was there taking the standards down....

In 2012, it was £9,000 per person per year for lung cancer, and there are about 44,500 new diagnosis each year and 20,000 deaths.

Not at Slough hospital....

[WTFH]

What is that in billions?
And how much in billions is saved from the state pension?
And factor in if they don’t die of lung cancer they’re still going die (that costs money), or even worse they live for 30 years as a dribbling alzheimer vegatable.....

I don’t have answer to these questions. But I do know the answer isn’t to refuse health care to fatties.

Thanks Lance.

How much do you think their healthcare is going to cost?

[Zigenare]

and here we agree.
Solves the pension crisis as well.

Anyone stupid enough to smoke can live (die) by their own consequences.

But why should the state do it's best to keep you alive when you clearly have not taken that much interest in it...

I think I'm right in saying you can't actually opt to go entirely private and avoid involvement with the NHS entirely for treatment in the UK. A private doctor has to have some interaction with your NHS GP, although I'm unsure of the details.

But if that is the case, and the NHS takes it upon itself to force people to use its services one way or another in practice, then they have no right to criticise anyone's lifestyle choices or be selective about treatment.
