Health tourist?

Alert! If you post comments on GN which are anything other than narrow-minded and right-wing you are doing so ONLY to seem 'holier than thou' !!
Renders the whole GN concept of discussion and exchanging ideas completely irrelevant then.

Perhaps we shouldn't bother with threads at all then.

mcem I could come on here and say all the right things to make me seem holier than thou like some on here do. Actions speak louder than worlds, if you are so concerned about this girl ( I have already said it is a very sad situation) then do something about it, start a petition/collection for her. Coming on here saying the NHS should treat her. how horrible other people are to not think like this (what a good person I am to think this etc etc) how is that helping her. Talks cheap.

Totally lacking in compassion. As her father is a British citizen, why can't she be made one, fast-tracked.

I thought the Pakistan government paid for Malala's treatment.

Perhaps the reason she lives with her grandparents is to allow her father to pursue his naval career. If he were working regular hours, based at home in UK, it may be that she'd be living here with him and there would be no problem accessing treatment.
There has to be a degree of flexibility here. Guess there must be an online petition.
But once again I am warmed by the sympathetic response of magpie.
Brings to mind the old Scots saying 'De'il tak' the hindmost'.
How did you feel when Malala was brought to UK for treatment?
Should she have been turned away too?

She is not a British citizen she does not live with her father in this country. It is sad, but the NHS is not a world wide health service, rules are rules. Perhaps someone will help to pay for her treatment here.

I agree - arguing over whether a child is entitled to have ber life saved is shameful. Treat her at once.

Absolutley disgraceful situation this child should be treated asap.
