People say they're scared that Corbyn will wreck the country. People, the country is already wrecked. Haven't you noticed?

They will blame immigrants, then councils, then administrators, then patients for not looking after themselves then doctors and nurses. Basically anyone but themselves.

K MT Full how? EU immigrants are a vital part of the NHS and EU immigrants use it significantly less than their taxes pay for. The problem isn't immigration. The problem is falling taxes on the rich and business and falling spending on public services compared to what they need. It's not working immigrants with the money. It's the rich. The 1% have taken nearly all new income since 2008. And the Tories have helped them by lowering their taxes while public services disintegrated. Austerity was a choice. It was a deliberate policy to shred the public services so the wealthy could pay less tax. Don't point your finger at decent people just because they weren't born in the UK. Point your finger at the real problem - the people who want you blaming immigrants instead of them. Blame the Tories and their wealthy puppet masters.

Marilena Ganea Agreed. But some non-EU citizens do get away with not paying their dues. Only it's a tiiiny percentage of overall spending. In fact most analysis suggests that even trying to bill these people costs more than what they owe. It's just another lie put about by the Tories and their pals that the problem with the NHS is immigration. See my long comment above on that. :)

Karezza Kenosis Tell me honestly. What percentage of NHS spending do you think goes on foreigners using the system without paying for it?
