I saw that......good job I've some gypsies in my family or I'd have been really annoyed.....
No it isn't fair - and it's the quickest way to create resentment.
I think a better suggestion would be to have 'mobile doctors' who travelled to Traveller sites on particular days to offer a GP service, rather than upsetting the systems in local GP surgeries.

Sadly, travellers have to accept that their transient lifestyle will inevitably make access to dentists and other medical practices more problematical for them than it is for a more settled community.

In permanent sites, with more static traveller residents there should be no real problem accessing the available local services.

I see what you mean about the statics Julnar ,we have them at our surgery. Speaking for our docs their patients heads have to be falling off before they come out so would the NHS allow moblie surgery's Hmmm.
Once again it seems the ones that have paid little or nothing into the system reap the most benefits.

The guidelines have been introduced because, under race laws, gipsies and travellers are defined as minority ethnic groups and the NHS is obliged to consider their special needs and circumstances. Yet no special treatment is promised for other groups such as those from the Asian sub-continent or Africa.

If it does not include those from the the Asian sub-continent or Africa, who are these minority ethnic groups? Do you think they are getting ready for an influx of Gypsies from Eastern Europe?

Although PCTs do not necessarily have to follow the guidelines, they could be breaking human rights law and the Race Relations Act of 2000 if they do not.

Couldn't the same be said regarding our human rights, and wouldn't it also be breaking the Race Relations Act for the rest of us to be treated differently to others, or doesn't it work this way round?

I remember in the 60s when caravanning at the sea-side, if one took ill, one only had to report it to the camp shop and the local GP would drive out to your caravan to treat you.

How times have altered, some things haven't changed for the better, they have only got worse.

if it's true, then of course it's unfair.

But given that it's the Mail, it's their daily outrage, and couple that with the fact that in several places in the 'story' they can't even spell 'gypsies' properly, I'd imagine it's really the rant of a bored hack.
No it isn't fair, but then Britain 2009 is not about fairness, it's about some sad form of correctness. If you are White, it's time to think of leaving, this country is not for you. If you are Black, or Ethnic minority, or anything else that isn't White, then hang around, it is Paradise.

Next door to me. 4 rooms let to black people, one room alone sleeps 7 (parents + 5 children), 1 room occupied by a white Polish immigrant. The Polish guy is openly called "rat", "white git" by a 5 yo black girl. He says he is leaving because he can't stand the rows about colour.

The little black girls regularly drop their knickers and urinate on the patio.
