God Bless The NHS

A rant brought about by the blatant conning of the National
Health Service by overseas health tourists and the folly of our government who let it go on because they're scared of criticism by politically correct lunatics.


So let me get this straight mate
I’m drawing my pension
Not to mention
A free bus pass
For me and my lass
And we're living in 'Freebee' heaven?
Even though I’ve paid for it since 1957?
And that makes me a scrounger? Yes?
A lazy social lounger more or less?

And the foreigner who comes here for his health
Even though he’s rolling in wealth
Takes my investment by stealth
Then flies away no intention to pay
He’s welcome with open arms
If I protest all sorts of alarms
Are sounded and I’m rounded
Upon for being cross
At watching my investment lost

Bring diphtheria
From Nigeria
Take a bed and nothing said
Wife comes to have a child
Met with action free and mild
Oh land of milk and honey
How freely you do spend my money

My sister-in-law died of cancer
NICE can’t afford drugs because some chancer
Flies in from oversees
Quotes his ‘rights’ sir if you please!

Well my friend not being hard
But have you got a credit card?
If you’ve not please go way
And arrange another way to pay.

But no that would be far too easy
Treatment for the old and wheezy
Must be provided totally free
At the expense of you and me

Though I love charity and I'm a giver
Methinks we're being sold down the river
God bless
The NHS!
