Another fact. It's a long URL; here's the shorter version.

Aneurin Bevan, In Place of Fear.

The NHS in the UK is free at the point of consumption. Before it gets
heavily criticised here -- and some of your criticisms will have

years, and no-one, and I mean no-one, in the UK would want to see its
core principles attacked, regardless of political persuasion.
