I think I'm going to write a letter to my M.P. refusing to pay my National Insurance, what's the point if they aren't there when you need them? I'm sure Mr Tagg has paid into the pot for most of his life, only to be refused treatment when he needs it. It infuriates me that the government can find 25bn to bale out a certain bank, and throw £750m (IIRC) at that god awful dome, (which credit where it is due, O2 seem to have turned around into a profitable venue) and yet a war hero can't get his eyes fixed on the NHS.

Every time I read a story like this about the government failing those who deserve better, I get just a little bit more tempted to emmigrate. I know there are people in the world far worse off, that require aid in many ways, but my god I wish we would look after our own house first.



Find an address or set up a paypal fund or something, I'd gladly send £5.
