How many in England think that prescriptions should be free at the point of use ?

I see its now £8.80 thats crazy

I know people are going to use the whole but its really free in Scotland i say thats just semantics as no one is saying they provided free by pharma companies its free at the point of use

You dont see people walking into a chemist in Scotland for a prescription and having to hand over money for it

Maybe and hopefully one day England will follow Scotlands example

No one should have to pay £8.80 for what they need but England for some reason trust the Tories

Just shows you how different Scotland and England are

Because it's the same Anti-English xenophobia with every single thread you post.

It's anti English because you don't like working with the the English, you don't think the English have anything to contribute, you don't think the English should hold anti political power in the UK. It xenophobic, it's obvious, and it's disgusting.

Excuse me CLCC

Were you not the one saying how you believe that England should have the biggest say on how the UK is run because of population ?

Oh and your putting words in my mouth

What i want is for England and Scotland to be independent countries that work together

Not for Westminster to think they own Scotland and tell us we in Scotland should suffer Tory cuts not on!

In the interests of fairness, England is the only part of the union to charge for prescriptions, I believe.

It's so not worth another thread, Kinky. Less is more tbh

No, I don't think prescriptions should be free for all they are means tested so those most in need don't have to pay. The country and the UK have limited resources, you can't just keep taking.

The Nuffield report you used to like mentioning criticised NHS Scotland about their medium to long term planning and the sustainability of your current services, so perhaps free prescriptions won't be a permanent benefit in Scotland

As the OP knows, there isn't such a thing as "free prescriptions".

There is always a cost somewhere. It's how you evaluate that cost and pass it on.

Fortunately I have good health so to pay £8.80 for a prescription when I am ill that helps me get better and back to work (and paying taxes) then it is a price worth paying.

If I had a long term condition/illness then it could be expensive.

Kinky, if an independent Scotland under the SNP could not afford free prescriptions would you still demand it?

The average spend per head for Scotland last year was £10651. In England, it was £8898.

"The average spend per head for Scotland last year was £10651. In England, it was £8898.

I've supplied you these figures before. Now maybe you can give us the tax take figures per head for the two regions. Back up your absurd claims with some of your research.

Is that a request or an order ?

One side provides evidence, the other refuses to. If this was a court, who would you believe?

Lmao what rule on fab says i have to ?

You don't have to, but you undermine your arguement if you don't. It shows you haven't done your research. You can't even answer simple, basic questions like where contributes more tax, Norfolk or London. It shows that you are well out of your depth.

Correct i dont have too your getting there lol

Oh right so you have never met me but seem to know better than me what i have and havent researched lmao

Well based on your inability to produce a coherently argument on here, and given your inability to support your assertions with any evidence, it would appear that either your rhetoric or your research, or both, are sorely lacking.

You said I don't have to lol

Again you do not know me to judge

"Kinky, if an independent Scotland under the SNP could not afford free prescriptions would you still demand it?

The SNP policy is for to keep free prescriptions do you have any evidence to say that would change in an independent Scotland under a SNP government ? The point it moot

I don't have or need any evidence because it was a hypothetical question. I am interested to hear your response.

Can you answer the question on that basis?

Then no thanks

Why not? A simple yes/no would suffice.

Why would it be an order?

I was asking you a simple hypothetical question. I'm puzzled why you can't answer it as no research is needed.

"How many in England think that prescriptions should be free at the point of use ?

I see its now £8.80 thats crazy

I know people are going to use the whole but its really free in Scotland i say thats just semantics as no one is saying they provided free by pharma companies its free at the point of use

You dont see people walking into a chemist in Scotland for a prescription and having to hand over money for it

Maybe and hopefully one day England will follow Scotlands example

The savings should come from the wastage drooping.

Not all drugs are over 8.8 pounds but most doctors will advise if it is cheaper over the counter.

Why? My parents were careful with money and worked hard, and have money. They are just as old, and feel the cold as much as someone who has been lazy all their life, and has wasted money, so that they have none.

You dont see people walking into a chemist in Scotland for a prescription and having to hand over money for it

Maybe and hopefully one day England will follow Scotlands example

No one should have to pay £8.80 for what they need but England for some reason trust the Tories

The UK runs a deficit, Scotland spends even more on education and prescriptions, so how would they afford it even if the economy of Scotland was an exact scaled down version of the UK economy (which it wouldn't be)

A country is determined by the willingness of the people within a particular geographical area to govern themselves.

Scotland is a country, because the people of Scotland wish it to be so, Ireland is a country, because the people of Ireland wish it to be so, and threw off the yoke of English opression. Wales is a country, because the people of Wales wish it to be, Northern Ireland....more complex.

"I'm sure that all cultural differences in the UK are "problematic" to CLCC and they could be cured if only everyone was forced to be English, spoke English and accepted that their union with England was about "unity" as opposed to "empire"....

They are much more problematic to Kinky, they want to split the country up!

Country? There are four of them in the UK.

Why shouldn't they govern themselves? Historic Saxon aggression ought to be a thing of the past, no?

Country, the UK is the country. Although some people refer to England, Scotland, Wales and NI as countries, they are not. No individual seats at the UN, EU, NATO, WTO etc.

Where have I ever said that the UK is England?

The UK is the country, this is both historically with a union of several hundred years, and also re-confirmed in a recent referendum.

I know that is not the way you want it to be, but that is the way it is.

So a seat at the UN negates centuries of struggle of a particular culture against English oppression?

Does Cambridge have its own culture, it's own language, distinct from the rest of England?

Do it's people wish for self determination?

Are you so devoid of empathy that you cannot recognise the centuries of subjugation, torture and in some cases open warfare directed at these countries by England?

Don't you accept that England did its level best to eradicate the native culture and language in Wales, Scotland and Ireland (and Cornwall too)?

Since you love cultural imperialism so much, don't you think your true place in politics is on the far right? I hear the BNP are struggling for members....

That is the history of every country in the world, hell even before there was even the notion of the nation state! Any language that you think people should be speaking has replaced a language that was previously spoken. I don't see why small minded people want to look back to the past, re-ignite past conflicts, long since forgotten. I prefer looking to the future, where people work together, not create artificial divisions.

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

—?Genesis 11:1–9[10]

It does make a difference when the language that people were speaking was beaten out of them as children by the English (see: the "Welsh knot" which went on well into the 1960s), and many are still speaking - Wales definitley has monoglot speakers.

As much as you'd like the people of Scotland, Ireland and Wales to seccede that their notions of nationhood are merely misty-eyed nostalgia, and they should not "look to the past" but accept that they are English now, and have been conquered, I don't think they will (and nor should they). The very idea that these struggles are "long since forgotten" shows how ignorant you are.

Do you think that the people of Eire have "long since forgotten" 1916?

People might work together when they have not been continually repressed by the nation next to them.

I think this is the problem with you - your arrogance belies both your lack of empathy and knowledge. It is a trait of the far right to have an anti-academic bent and you are no different.

So which human beings can remember the events of 1916 then? Name them? What can they remember? Nothing, they don't exist. Anyone who could have actively participated in the events have long since died. I bet you are still angry at the Germans about WWI. Can you not see how it's better to bury the hatchet and move forward hand in hand working to build a better future for everyone?

Here is a parable you need to learn:

A grandfather is talking with his grandson and he says there are two wolves inside of us which are always at war with each other.

One of them is a good wolf which represents things like kindness, compassion, co-operation, bravery and love. The other is a bad wolf, which represents things like greed, hatred, revenge, grudges and fear.

The grandson stops and thinks about it for a second then he looks up at his grandfather and says, “Grandfather, which one wins?”

The grandfather quietly replies, the one you feed.

Lol not been listening eh

The mandate is fir when the final brexit deal is known then the Scottish people will finally know what the final deal will be and make a fair judgement if independence or srsting in a hard brexit is best forScotland

That's how democracies work. The bigger the population, the bigger the voice. As you disagree with the way all democracies are set up, I must only assume that you want some kind of dictatorship or junta. Well I doubt you will find many supporters for that.
