There are approximately 700,000 people born in Poland alone resident in the UK and many, many, others from EU counties & Lord knows how many immigrants from beyond, all of whom have never contributed a penny to the NHS but have full access to healthcare whatever the cost.
How can this work ?

If there was a loophole (which I doubt) one might wonder why 12 years of Tory government hasn’t closed it, wouldn’t one?

If they have been in the UK & are working (not all of them are) for say 3 years, they will have paid only 3 years of N.I. contributions & taxes, but have the same entitlement as a person who has paid in for 50 years.
As I say, how can that work ?

Incomers are mainly young & pretty healthy so I don't see them as a substantial drain on the NHS. There is obviously something wrong with the current "model" & I wonder what a private health care system could achieve with the money currently being used to fund the NHS.
i.e. In comparable countries with better outcomes how much goes into providing healthcare per citizen.
