Most countries do not require medical insurance to obtain a visa. EU (Schengen countries) do require such insurance. Usually, for other countries it is optional. (and is different to normal travel insurance) I have already explained that the EHIC scheme does not cover planned treatment. It may...

So you think that because we don't operate the system the way it is supposed to be operated, we should unilaterally withdraw from it? Who's fault is it that we don't operate the system properly? Who loses out the most if we unilaterally withdraw form it? Who gains the most? (I suspect that...

I think you will find your opinion is based on claiming money back (or not) for non-EU citizens. With an EHIC card you may be required to pay upfront for treatment, but the EHIC card allows you to reclaim the money from the UK. The EHIC card only covers unplanned care, i.e. emergency treatment...

How about providing some of your data or proof to support your comments?

The EHIC scheme works fine, and doesn't need scrapping. If a non-EU person applies for a Schengen visa, they are required to have health insurance. This doesn't apply to UK, of course, because we are not in Schengen. But the UK could implement a similar system. It chooses not to. It is not...

Around the UK? If it was a faintly plausible option, where would we find sufficient builders from? Abroad? I assume your comment is an ironical mickey take on Trump.

I assume you realise that is illegal. You can't abandon them at sea, Apart from the fact that is probably contradictory to any code that applies on the high seas, it's probably also contradictory to any human rights legislation. You can't land them on another nation's shores, that would be...

Keeping the 'illegals' out when we are an island, is extremely difficult, unless you have the full cooperation of neighboring states, who you can persuade to keep the potential 'illegals' in. I am sure you can appreciate the difficulty in patrolling all potential 'embarking' and 'departing'...

He joins others in their legal pursuance of justice, or those found guilty: Gina Miller, the imprisonment of Paul Santana, Mohammed Saddiq and Babar Saddiq, Murli Mirchandani, Anton Vickerman, and numerous others. Also, this article was back in 2014. I suspect the issues causing that increase...

Fear, awe, aversion are very closely aligned. It is like someone arguing that they never used the wood 'consistently', when they have used the word 'persistently'. It is clutching at straws. Any reasonable person sees through your extremely fragile ploy.

It is not that I have lost track, I suggest that you are totally distorting my argument. I have absolutely not ever said that phobia means hatred or discrimination. If you think I have ever said that, you are either extremely mistaken, which means that you do not understand English, or you are...

As I see it, when one's argument has been resolutely dismantled, one has several options. 1. Admit that one's argument has been dismantled, and accept the others's argument. One must admire this type of behaviour. 2. Quietly, keep one's head down, with the intrinsic acceptance that he other's...

Fair comment, but "inches from the fire", and "in contact with the fire" is sufficiently different to ring alarm bells. With a rendered BBQ, the fire could easily be in direct contact with the render.

It's a prosecution to be tested in the courts. The judge has already ruled that certain aspects of the prosecution's case have been met. As far as I can tell, the defence rests on the argument, 'was he in acting in a public officer role, when he made the false statements?'. The judge has already...

I did ask you where you get your definition from. You did not provide a source of your definitions. Indeed, throughout our discussion you failed to provide one single source of support for your version of the definition. You will recall that I consistently supported my accepted definitions with...

Petulance!

What's a Morris Traveller?

You think accepting the well-used, pseudo-legal definition of words is not understanding English? I suppose your reliance on the etymology of words to suggest their meaning is understanding plain English? I suggest you are talking nonsense. The etymology of words is rarely reliant on English...
