I know we have discussed his ad nauseum here on AB before, but if everybody else will be present tonight, but not Cameron, or Cleggie, what is the point ?

What value is there in a Debate if one of the only two people that can win in three weeks time is left out ?

It's fairly obvious what Cameron is up to. After the debate he will use the predominantly Right-wing mass media to refute any anti-Tory claims made on the programme without fear of any contradiction (which would have happened if he had been present in the debate). He gets the last word. Job done.

When I visit other Countries in the EU I have a card given to me by the Go vernment which entitles me to treatment in whichever country I am in.

Don't suppose any one here knows the breakdown of the costs paid by other countries to UK citizens getting treatment there,as opposed to the costs we pay for treatment of EU citizens in the UK.

Maybe would be interesting.

E111 forms and reciprocation of free at the point of delivery healthcare among EU countries is a given. What goes around comes around and, given a measurement period long enough (eg 10 years), I dare say the figures would all even out between any given country pair. That was not the issue he brought up.

Farorrhoids has, twice, cited the hypothetical situation of a visitor being diagnosed with AIDS and obtaining expensive treatment here.

Name a European country notorious for having a high incidence of AIDS?


Struggling to think of one?

Okay, name a continent notorious for having a high incidence of AIDS? Might this be what Farage is alluding to?

Why be so specific? Why not mention a different medical condition at each debate, so long as it fitted his shock-horror pricetag picture?

The point he was trying to make "no money for treating pensioners because it was spent on health tourists" is valid but why ruin it by associating health tourism with a particular continent?
