Funny, I was thinking about this case recently. I remember it becuase I told my father at the time when it was breaking news .... I bet she did it. Shock, a week later, the real story comes and she's a phsyco!!

On the case of plastic surgery, it's simply off to be honest. I still feel aggrived having to keep these fruit loops behind bars, giving them a better standard of life than some honest, hard working people have. So the fact that we are changing her identity just racks me off even more!!

Reconstructive - Yes

Cosmetic - No

But even this is difficult. What about braces for children??

The NHS needs to apply nationally set standards of what it will and won't pay for. I hope a Tory government will introduce tax breaks for private health insurance to reduce the burden on the taxpayer. If we can introduce top up style payment for the extras all the better. Those who can pay should, and those who can't can then get a better service for less cost.

dental treatment should be free anyway.

Braces in most cases are purely cosmetic! only very occasionally they are used for 'medical' reasons, or nothing that couldn't be solved by teeth pulling!

Not long now before Gordon will surely move over for you ....

Imagine listening to some sane ideas from politicians once again!
