Weeelllll . . . I’m rather puzzled that you did think it. The NHS has been treating foreigners for money for many years, & has always, AFAIK (it certainly had when I worked in it in the 1970s, & enforcement is apparently stricter now) had rules requiring anyone coming to this country with a pre-existing condition to pay.
Why did you think otherwise?

I apologise for incorrectly stating that their treatment was free:( However, you couldn’t blame me for thinking it:rolleyes:
Now back to the photos

Why would it be free? Unless they have residency here, or dual nationality, they’d be liable to pay. The NHS isn’t free for anyone in the world who feels like coming here for treatment, & never has been.
They’re no longer rebels, BTW. They’re now soldiers in the national army.

Image aside, why are they being flown to the UK in a German aircraft for (I guess free) treatment? Beggars belief. More taxpayers money down the drain. It’s a good job our economy is so strong;):mad:
