I love how all the fascists decry this conveniently forgetting the fact that plenty of us go to other countries for cheap surgery. (How's that for 'hypocrisy' Divebuddy ...tiresome?)

Retrochic, I have never had a 'Je Suis Charlie' avatar - fancy apologising to me too?

"Why are some always ready to place the blame at Christianity's door".
Possibly because there is a much longer history of murder (sometimes mass murder) rape and pillage carried out in the name of christianity than with islam.

I am more than happy to accept your apology in the spirit it is tendered. I thought we were singing from the same hymn sheet and therefore surprised to read the unintentional rudeness that arrived in your post.

I accept this as a quirk of modern technology (spellchecker). BTW if you really knew me you would discover that no way would I be described as a mysogonist especially from females of my acquaintance.

Divebuddy, has anyone ever told you that you are an extremely tight-fisted so and so? Why do you keep holding the moral high-ground in such a dogmatic way, as I said before: no one is perfect.

[Retrochic]

Thank you Retrocop

[Retrochic]

Zac -of course -I apologize for presuming you had an avatar that depicted je suis charlie -I have mistaken you for someone else -sorry xx

@Retrochic

Since when is 'Retrodope' an actual word?

Can anyone who knows the ins and outs of how predictive text works give us some clues?

Why is it that the "the liberal left do-gooders" who set themselves up to be so caring, are always so uncaring towards those that disagree with their own personal agenda?

I think lefties are caring to those they see as being in the same boat as themselves and those visibly worse off than themselves. There is no need to care for those richer than themselves as they can clearly look after themselves *without resorting to state-funded services*.

The argument used against the health tourist, that they are here to get what they cannot afford at home, can just as easily be used against those on the right who are wealthy enough to use BUPA but use the NHS instead.

Hello Divebuddy.
The going rate for (eg) dental implants is significantly cheaper in (eg) Spain or Poland, many people from the UK go to such places for this treatment, the principle is the same IMO.
Indeed, my use of the term 'tightfisted' was out of context. It was a word I snatched out of the air hastily to describe what I see in you as a rather inflexible and dogmatic way of dealing with 'discrepancies' you raise with some posters.

[Answerprancer]

Someone must be paying for it as the difference in cost abroad is so much bigger for the same quality of treatment.

@divebuddy

I am mortified at the cost of dental treatment here because of the impossibility of finding an NHS dentist with a vacancy on their list! I am unwaged but cannot claim benefits. At least not until my dentist (and the vets) have finished drilling into my savings.

As s/he comes from the states and this is what they might label an "elective procedure", it is possible that their health insurance refuses to cover that class of treatment.

If "YouTuber" is their sole 'occupation', meaning 'self-employed' then good luck to 'em affording a health plan at all. If they did have an employer, they would be at the employer's mercy with regard to the Op.

Remember, in bible-basher states, employers have been known to stop female employees from getting access to contraception and abortions. This is the world we are heading towards if Tories get their way and make the NHS "cost-effective". Bloomin' bean-counters.

Nonsense.

[Answerprancer]

Which bit is "nonsense" Talbot, a one word summary of my theory seems more nonsensical to me. Discuss man, discuss!

[-Talbot-]

The principle of cheap (you're still paying for a service that the medical practice has set) agains FREE which means you don't pay anything.

It's not the same at all is it?

And why start everything with ......................blah , blah blah ...fascists

?

[Answerprancer]

Why? Because the same faces show up on threads like this spouting the same old dogmatic opinionated bigotry. They need this label afaic, maybe it will make them look at themselves.

Ok it's not exactly the same but it it is MUCH cheaper abroad for these services.
Somewhere along the line a large amount of money is going amiss, perhaps WE are the ones that are charging far too much and perhaps that makes it ok for foreigners to come and capitalise on some of this profit if of course the money is from the same source.

"Why do you keep holding the moral high-ground in such a dogmatic way"

which is roughly what you do in every post you barge into .....god help anybody who doesnt subscribe to APs distorted leftie view....

how can anybody possibly think for one second or have the downright cheek to say that he is wrong and they are right.......shocking
