UKIP Health Spokesman responds to outrageous EHIC card loophole
Posted
on August 10
A loophole is allowing people who have never paid tax in
Britain to bill the NHS for healthcare in their own countries, an investigation
has found. Foreign nationals who claim they are living in the UK are obtaining
free European Health Insurance Cards (EHIC) to charge the UK for treatment in
their home countries, the Daily Mail
said.
UKIP Health Spokesman Louise Bours MEP: "If the Tories don’t stop this going on, it will show once and for all
that they prioritise the EU more than they care about the NHS and the health of
British people.
"It is of course outrageous that this has been allowed to take place, but
Cameron’s claim that the government didn’t know it was going on is equally
unacceptable.
