Should the Fatties and Smokers get treatment on the NHS

[HabDabs]

Who will be next on the list ?

Who shoud go on the list ?

Is it fair to the rest of us that smelly people who ride a motorbike which is an unsafe form of transport receive hospital treatment when they fall off.

Will they stop treatment to people who drink alcohol ?

This could be a very long list and save the country a fortune.

redman41 excellent point

How about Hockey players, HabDabs ?

They get hit by sticks a lot.

I bet more people go to hospital with Hockey injuries than just because they are overweight.

NB. Motorbikers ... NOT on the list.

workers

they are always getting injuries. If they carry on going to work, they should be refused treatment when they get injured , so they should.

All front line military personnel, serving in whatever conflict - weather you believe it to be justified or not - should not qualify for medical aid paid by a government agency funded by the taxpayer. After all, they knew the risks yet blatantly placed themselves in the firing line with no regard or responsibility to themselves or the paying public.
Where do you draw the line habdabs?

Don't forget children - they are always bashing their heads or falling of bikes.

smelly motorcyclists, clean motorcyclist are ok.

motorcyclists should be subject to yearly random odour checks

Thinking of what redman said my old doctor used to smoke and he would have an ashtray on his desk full of dimps
In the old tv series on telly the head bloke walked round the hospital with a smelly pipe stuck out of his mouth

Mountain climbers

I reckon fatties should sort themselves out and put down the pies, and smokers should whack on a patch or use whatever countless remedies are available for them..... but alcohol problems are consdiered a disease that SHOULD have the neccessary treatment available to them.... in my hunble opinion!

[cazzz1975]

alcoholics should pour the booze in the sink and join the AA

Put all footballers on the minumin wage and give them £500 for each goal that their team scores. that'll save loads of money.lol

I am off out have a nice night

[society]

The humanitarian side of me says that anyone in need if medical help or attention should receive it. Except for pedophiles, rapist, murders...

What about 'health tourists'?

[eyethenkyew]

Is this serious or just a numpty having a rant? CB's the place for that.

I think possibly not treating people whose illness is their own doing should have to wait longer or pay etc.

[david51058]

Smokers pay more in tax in total than it costs to treat them all, so yes they should. If they all stopped smoking, where would the extra revenue come from? Stop discouraging people from smoking I say.

[RATTER15]

Smelly bikers, you immature idiot!!!!!

How about the non smelly bikers, can they be treated?

You really are a first class fool!!
