I used to live in the UK and had cause to use the wonderful NHS a few times. Fantastic and free to the user. A health care system to envy.
Since Brexit theres been ramped up murmurings about scrapping the NHS and going with a US type model of healthcare. Let's face it the NHS is leaking money left right and centre.
People who are on continuous medication will end up having to pay for it. The big pharmaceutical companies stand to make huge profits.

There are no plans to scrap the NHS and replace it with US style of health care. That is ridiculous scare- mongering.

Not a chance. All political parties signed up. Any deviation is political suicide. Will have to pay if you're not a uk citizen but that's been the case for a good few years. It does need massive reform but that's another debate
