Bloody Poles.

If their insurance does not cover falling out of the sky - why did they jump off a mountain.

If my holiday insurance did not cover food poisoning, I wouldn't eat the soup in ChangMai........

Bloody Poles.

Yes, well, would we be entitled to ANY free medical cover where they're from? I doubt it.

I got food poisoning in Poland last year and had to go to hospital.
and no we definitely don't get anything free.

Part of the logic behind giving it to foreigners (oooerrr!) is the whole no-fault thing, ie the right to sue.



.....so if ACC is privatised, does that mean it opens up the right to sue? Please no dear god no.
