I claim seniority on this forum having just turned 94. When I got back from my 18 holes of golf I celebrated by buying a new camera..I am willing to concede if anyone can claim a higher age.

And what is your income tax rate?

Up to £1100'no tax.up to £43000. 30% then 40%. Not sure what in dollars as we have a lousy exchange rate.we also pay national insurance which is supposed to cover medical costs but probably does not.All medical costs are free.
Due to two things we sometimes have to wait for treatment.one is that people are living longer and the other is three million immigrants.Hiwever if it is serious tbe care is immediate.
It is not perfect but in my humble opinion miles better than the US system. In fact quite a few folk from the U S come over for treatment and do not always pay but they are clamping down on that.n

Don't think I'll be moaning about my National Insurance contributions for the N.H.S. any time soon! If they (Government) ask for it I'll pay a little extra, just so long as the money is ringfenced.

Sure we get all free but we might have to wait eight hours in A and E or two weeks to see a GP.

I have no statistics but I believe quite a few of sex crimes in the Uk are committed by immigrants. Their attitude to women is different.some time ago a group of Libyan officer cadets had to be hastily returned to their own country after several sexual offences.They were not ignorant nor deprived but believed white women were fair game.

It really depends what your interests are.Canterbury was mentioned.the oldest cathedral in the world. You could spend two weeks in London and not see everything. The Science Museum is fantastic .Go on the Eye for a great view.Cambridge is one of my favourite cities. The Cotswolds are lovely with great country houses.
In London, ask where ou should not go at night but the West End is fine. See a show at one of our great theatres.Taxis are dear but buses are cheap.
Enjoy.n
