That pi55es me off so much, that postcode lottery crap!!

The word is NATIONAL as in Health Service, not Regional or Local.

We all pay an equal share into the pot therefore the benefits should be equally shared.

Nick should not have to go traipsing around the country to obtain treatment that is rightfully his. The last thing he needs is the stress involved with moving home. The treatment is available in the UK and should therefore be taken to him not vice versa.

Tell you what, let's cancel just ONE high level, completely unnecessary, nose rubbing, governmental shindig - that's Nick's treatment paid for.

Apologies if this comes across as a thread hijacking soap box rant at the government but it really grips my sh** when I see the money these wnakers waste when real, deserving people have to fight tooth and nail for what should be rightfully theirs at a time when they could really do without any additional stress.

Coat, hat...........
