LOL in theory - but reality gives that joke a subtle hidden punchline that makes it even better, especially considering that this is a
very touchy subject in the UK.
The NHS does not treat foreign citizens for any long-term illnesses, so you'd have to pay in full or go back home, and your travel insurance would only pay to get you back home. So instead of ripping off the British taxpayer for some very expensive treatment, you'd pay for an expensive foreign holiday, expensive travel insurance, and you'd
still be liable for your own medical bills.
Now
that's what I call a punchline.
